Single Outlet Pump With Two Air Stones?

[Ant_Soton]

Can this be done or not. If so, how? As a T-section does not work !!

Thanks peeps. Please excuse my ignorance !!!

get a 2 way air valve, as long as the pump is powerfull enough the airstones will work!

You may need clamp on on side, as the air normally finds ones side easier to go down that the other, so you need to block that side off slightly to force the air down the other tube as well.

Or it could be that your air pump isn't powerful enough.

Thanks peeps, forgive my ignorance but what does one of these two way valves look like? Is is the T-piece?

Or is it one of these?

Cool, or as we used to say funky bananas man !! lol Will pop into lfs and get one and a new air stone as mine crumbled !!

 

[Blubble37]

Hey i use a t - section and a plastic clamp in 1 of my tanks. The clamp is used to balance the air flow between the 2 stones. So u get the same flow to both stones resulting in the same amount of bubbles. Without the clamp ul get loads of bubbles from 1 stone and none from the other. Hope this helps

normally the higher airstone gets all the air
