hi all my tank has been up and running for about 4 months every thing seems ok except when my c02 turns on in the morning it blows of the diffuser with quite a big bang i put it back on and it runs ok till next day it does it again my checkers are green to yellow the fish are happy so i dont relly want to turn the presure down any advice please the bubble counter is a bit fast to count but it is a bit more than 3 bps
 
this happened to mine on my internal one, a couple of years back while I was out and overdosed my fish, lost a couple of fish that day. I now use an external. what diffuser have you got?
