the problem with running it directly into the canister is that concentrated co2 can potentially break down the rubber and other pieces in the can over time. (impeller housing, seals, ect). it can be done, and people do it all the time, so its really your choice. i personally would not suggest taking the risk when making a diy diffuser or even a simple bubble dome, is so easy.
