I will add some links here as I find them. Check back. Others probably know of threads on do it yourself aeration they can link to. Not all of the links will apply directly to your question, but questions you eventually will ask if you keep experimenting.

thread on potential dangers of under sized aeration

diffuser cleaning

discussion on pressure calculations

aeration installation
Some documentation of my DIY aeration system

some more on diy air system

finally got around to building the air pump housing

If your time is worth much, buying a pre packaged system from a reputable supplier is likely the best route. If you have a penchant for experimentation and learning in the process (as I do), you can put your own system together recognizing that if you make a few mistakes along the way it might end up costing you as much in the end to finally get it "right" as if you had just bit the bullet in the beginning.
