Paintball Co2. Bad valves?

I went to fill some co2 tanks at academy today. 3 of 8 took a fill. 3 of them they brought back and said they wouldn't fill. 2 were spewing out around the valve and subsequently covered in ice. I'm thinking the burst disc wouldn't spew out the center of the valve like that.

Yes, probably bad valves.

I switched over to high-pressure air years ago...
