Is it alright to run ~20ft of CO2 tubing from the needle valve/manifold to the diffusor? Is there some a length limit?

Can typical CO2 tubing be painted with latex?

Thank you.
 
Most things can be painted with latex but I think there is a colored CO2 tubing out there that might work. If I find it again I will let you know. As for the length, I guess it depends on the pressure. My DIY single bottle setups hate to push CO2 more than 4 inches down the tank. If it is pressurized, I don't think you could hurt your pressure using 100 feet let alone 20.
