OxInYourBox: I used 3/8" fittings, but I think I'll have to replace the one for the CO2 with a 1/4". I won't know for sure till the regulator gets here. The 4 way cross may help spread the water out but you sacrifice valuable media space for all that PVC.

craby:The trip throught the pump is pretty violent, you might be making it needlessly complicated. The CO2 bubble size should be sufficiently reduced by the pump. Also the turbulence resulting from the water flowing through all the elbows will reduce the bubbles further.
