Pawfly Aquarium Check Valves for Fish Tank

The Clear Plastic One Way Non-Return Check Valve for Fish Tank is an essential accessory for your aquarium air pump setup. Designed specifically for oxygen pumps, this great 1-way check valve is suitable for most common aquarium air pumps, but not for CO2 or other high-pressure systems, to avoid cracks and leaks.

Measuring 2.1" L x 0.55" W, with an air hole diameter of 0.12", and weighing only 0.1 oz, this small and light check valve can be easily added to your standard 3/16" ID airline tubing without adding significant weight, ensuring smooth airflow.

One of the primary functions of this check valve is to prevent backflow of water through the tubing during a power outage or pump pause, making it an essential component for your basic aeration setup in your fish tanks. By acting as an ideal pump protector, this valve helps to safeguard your aquarium equipment and ensure the continued well-being of your aquatic inhabitants.

Constructed from reliable, sturdy plastic, the check valve can be tightly connected to the hose without any air leaks. Additionally, it is designed to endure long-term use without producing any noticeable noise, contributing to a peaceful and quiet environment for your fish.

Maintaining this check valve is a straightforward process. Simply clean it regularly and, if it becomes clogged and restricts air flow, you can easily poke it open from the inlet side using a slim stick.

In conclusion, the Clear Plastic One Way Non-Return Check Valve for Fish Tank is a must-have accessory for any aquarium owner looking to ensure the proper functioning of their air pump system and the overall health and well-being of their aquatic life.
