teazeb Posted February 20, 2008 Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 Hi there, I have asked around "where do i get the copper (not plastic) gang valves or any valve i can use to control water flow through standard aquarium airline?" Most people say local fish stores or pet stores but the ones i have been to only stock the plastic valves. Does anyone know a store where they know they stock the metal valves? Thanks a million!!

teazeb Posted February 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 thanks Caryl! I need 6 at the moment so i guess im going to have to settle for the plastic ones unless you have 6 spare?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 I assume you mean 6 in a row on the one thing? I will look when I get home tonight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teazeb Posted February 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 i guess that will have to work i think. Ideally i need 6 individual ones to put in different places throughout the airlines but beggers can't be choosers i guess lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 I will check for both. I think I have lots of individual ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrienne Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 what do they look like, I have valves and bits & pieces everywhere that I mostly purchased in bulk lots? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teazeb Posted February 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 They are a copper valve that you put in between two pieces of airline and it then lets you control how much air/water can flow through the lines. P.S caryl.. if you do have 6 off the individual ones let me know how much you want for them please. I would be most gratefull! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 You mean these things? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teazeb Posted February 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 looks like what im talking about yes. Do you have to have 3 pipes connected or can you just have two. Do they control the amount of air that can floe through them? I think this is what i need thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
