Description of Rhinox Stainless Steel Needle Valve for Solenoid Fish Tanks - Accurate CO2 Regulation and CO2 Adjustment with Rhinox C02 Diffuser Set

Required To Regulate Co2 Flow Accurately --- In order to properly monitor and adjust the flow of CO2 in your fish tank or aquatic plant environment, a CO2 diffuser set is necessary. An essential part of any functioning diffuser setup is a dependable adjustment valve. The Rhinox CO2 Needle Valve regulates the amount of CO2 that should be released into your aquarium water. For Optimal Development Of Inhabitants --- All plants undergo a photosynthesis process that requires CO2 which they convert into oxygen. Your fish, shrimp, and other aquatic pets need to inhale this oxygen in order to survive and also exhale the carbon dioxide. Monitoring and regulating the amount of CO2 in your aquarium is essential to growing happy aquatic plants and pets. Durable Stainless Steel Interior With Aluminum Alloy --- this valve is constructed with high-quality, reliable stainless steel and aluminum alloy. The Aquarium C02 Regulator Needle Valve is lightweight and easy to operate. The precise structure of the needle valve features a special metal grinded surface and finely detailed threading for secure closure. Quick & Easy To Setup And Install --- Ergonomically designed, the CO2 regulator valve quickly and easily installs into your CO2 diffuser set without the use of any additional tool. The practical nut lock design effectively locks the one way valve to the CO2 tube without any worry of coming loose or causing mishappenings. Various Other Uses Along With Aquariums --- Although the most common use of the versatile Rhinox Needle Valve is the CO2 regulation system in a fish tank or aquatic plant aquarium, there are many other applications one can consider. It can be used on disposable carbon dioxide equipment, water heater systems, household appliances and measuring instruments.

Great valve for fish and aquatic animals

Durable and easy to use/install. Seems more reliable than other valves sold as part of home made CO2 generators. Mine didn't break and still effectively regulates the gas supply to my tank.

Pros
  • Well built
Cons
  • Useless features

Works as intended for water pump accessories

The valve was solid, showed no leakage. The flow control works well when the inlet pressure is not too high. My inlet pressure is 10psi and I can control the number of bubbles per second for my planted tank.

Pros
  • One year trial period
Cons
  • Some defects

DIY Co2 Injection Answer

I have a cheap $17 DIY Co2 unit that will connect two 2 liter Coke bottles to it and it came with a cheap valve. I bought it, installed it and was immediately satisfied. Now I can adjust the bubble counter to fractions of an inch when turning. Continuous. Well done. Will stand the test of time.

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Miscellaneous Miscellaneous

Probably no better than the one you have

Bought to replace the one that came with my DIY Co2 setup. Back pressure really messes up needle valves, including this one. This one is quite heavy and much stronger. I give 4 stars because the print is easier to manipulate. But he still has the same problems as the old one.

Pros
  • Nice looking
Cons
  • Expensive

Not for me: Aquarium pumps and filters

I have a homemade CO2 system. The small valve that comes with the kit is very difficult to set up, so I bought it as an extra control. Somehow I can't get it to work and it either releases too much or too little air. It could be my CO2 system (due to fluctuating pressure) or it could be this one. Although I still wear it, I'm still not happy with it.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Poor set

This is required for the DIY 51co2 system.

If you have a 51co2 build kit you need it. The needle valve included in the kit is too imprecise to properly control the flow of CO2. Replace it with this one and you'll find it in one fell swoop. I couldn't adjust the flow with the plastic value that came with the kit. I was about to throw away almost everything but decided to get a better valve and I'm glad I did.

Pros
  • Dope 🔥
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks

No guidance

Useless for me. Whether closed or open, it lets through the same amount of CO2. Doesn't even block the flow. Edit 2/16: I'll admit that I seem to have installed incorrectly. It seems that "Input" is the opposite input to the control knob and "Output" is the other. I'm changing this to 4 stars due to the lack of instructions. Edit 10./16. February: Not a big range. I have to close it hard to actually stop the flow of gas, and at the minimum opening it starts sending too much. Is it the pressure…

Pros
  • Top marks for support and longevity from testers
Cons
  • Add everything

Best CO2 DIY system I've found

This is the only product I've found in this price range that actually works. I am using this for a home made CO2 system in a 13.5 gallon fresh water tank. All other needle valves I've tried that are in the same price range don't close fully and/or give precise control over bladder adjustment. It was really driving me crazy thinking I couldn't find what I needed unless I wanted to spend a lot more. As they say, thank God for this valve! It didn't break the bank and works exactly how I need it to

Pros
  • Great selection
Cons
  • So So
