Im run an aqua clear filter on the tank that will have the c02, pretty sure thats canister?

When you say intake tube, do you mean the submerged pipe that sucks in water? Just shove it up that?

I managed to make a pretty good diffuser see:

Scroll down a bit.

Thanks for your help.
HOB = hang on back. Your Aqua clear is an HOB. Yes, the intake tube is the tube which sucks in the water. I have that exact set up on my 10 gal tank. I drilled a hole large enough in the intake tube to wedge the CO2 line into it, and the filter itself acts as the diffuser. I've had that set up going on 3 years now in that tank, it works great, and it's one less thing in the tank. I also have an Aquaclear filter on it.
