Aquatic Plant Central - View Single Post - Is there a danger of back pressure using solenoid?

I have just ordered my Co2 regulator from Glass Gardens. It is the Milwaukee MA957. I tried to find one without the solenoid, but this is the only model I could find.
This does have the solenoid and while I think I'm happy that I can shut it off at nite, I'm concerned about Co2 buildup or back pressure.
Is there any danger or problem when shutting off at nite? Please say no.

Oh also, so should I also shut off my reactor at night?
