Its the 37g w/ 2 bottles into a 20oz collector. I dont know, maybe im just being paranoid? at the moment, I have one comet in there, and he seems to spend alot of time in the current of my power head. how can i regulate this? standard screw valve in the line? Im not currently running a diffuser in my tank, its on order, so i had a standard airstone in there so i dont think that its being very efficent right now.

Generally, DIY CO2 will not produce too much CO2 to where it will hurt the fish. If you had some insane setup of like 5 2L bottles on a 10g, well that might do it though.

1 or 2 2L bottles on a 10g won't hurt though.

Look at your fish.....are they gasping at the top or anything? If so, then its too much CO2. Otherwise, if they are fine, your CO2 is fine.
