No matter what I did, I could not get this to supply air to any thing. I had another cheap two way valve that worked just fine, before and after trying this 4 way. Just wanted to add another line so I bought the 4-way. Don't waste your time but a metal one or another brand.

Cons: No Bubbles

I would definitely recommend this product i have one for 2 of my stones and and works great, its ls very good for adjusting the air flow to each stone, i have both stones with equal PSI 3rd is fully closed with a cap on it. I have no problems with air leaking out of them, the only thing i dislike about it is that its made out of plastic i would prefer metal but if you want to go cheap this is the product to go for.

Pros: easy to install, quiet, lots of bubbles

Valves Leak Badly - DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY

I purchased this 3 Gang Valve to save money. I should have known better. Thinking that my Top Fin Air-2000 air pump was not providing the psi suggested. It occurred to me to check for air leakage. While connected and running, I placed the Gang Valve with the connected airlines in a pot of water.

To my dismay, with all valves fully open, I saw more bubbles coming from the pot of water than I did from my two, 1 week old, UGF air stones and one waterwall stone in my 10 gallon tank!

Furthermore, the valves do not evenly adjust and one will not even turn off. This Gang valve does not operate as described, it only looks like one. If I had not purchased it online, I'd get my money back. Not worth the shipping. It will soon be in the trash where it belongs.

I bought this because I added a new bubbler to my tank, and needed another airline for it. I hooked this up, and nothing. I don't get air to either of the bubblers on it. The dials have nothing on them to tell you which way is open or closed. I turned the knobs in both directions with no change. Nothing works. I'm taking this back to Petsmart to looking for something else.

Pros: easy to install

Cons: No Bubbles

even with valve shut completely off, airflow may be too strong.

I didn't want to shell out money for another metal gang-valve so I got this. It blows. That is it allows air to excape at the valve dials. It does basically do its job so if you have extra psi it don't matter. I don't like the noise of leakage and so replaced it with another metal gang-valve and am happy again.

Pros: cheap, does its job

Cons: cheap, difficult to dial and stay where wanted, leaks air at dials

I have multiple tanks with one large air pump and need to meter the airflow from almost full open to very fine bubbles for different water effects. This valve does not shut off airflow sufficiently to control my needs. My other 4 gang valve is brass and does a great job. I guess I was hoping this "cheap" valve would do a similar job. This would be a good valve for air effects that don't have such an extreme difference in flow. PetSmart replaced the first one thinking it may be defective, but I got the same results with the replacement.

These gang valves are a must if you run multiple air operated devices in your aquarium. however I have found that it is nearly impossible to completely shut off the flow of air into an air hose. strangely I can adjust the one without an air hose attached all I want without this problem (or maybe it isnt noticeable without bubbles). even with its flaws it is very helpful due to the fact that with all the valves open my bubble wall does not operate correctly.

great thing to have if you wanna add toys or hook up bubble wands or air stones. but if you care about how they look I would recommend the gang valves with the chrome nozzles looks great for showing off your fish tank. but plastic one is still good to have. not as flashy though as the chrome one.
