Cross connector with control valve for aquarium air tubing, ø 5 mm - Trixie
A cross connector with valve to distribute air in the aquarium
This Trixie cross connector fits on the air tubing coming from the pump.
It lets you split the air between several outlets: air stone, bubbler, moving ornament or air-driven filter.
Its valve adjusts the outlet: you control the amount of air sent to each accessory.
More bubbles or fewer bubbles: one turn of the valve is all it takes.
It connects to ø 5 mm tubing: check the diameter of your tubing before ordering.
It is made of plastic, light and discreet in the cabinet or behind the aquarium.
Sold individually.
It replaces a worn connector or completes an existing setup, without changing the pump or the rest of the tubing.

Fitting
Cut the tubing straight at the chosen point.
Push each end onto a nozzle of the connector, then adjust the valve with the pump running.
Adjust the valve little by little while watching the bubble flow.
ℹ️ Good to know : place the pump above the water level or use a non-return valve, so that water does not flow back into the tubing when the pump stops.
⭐ Our team's tip : mark the outlets with a small piece of tape: you will know which tube goes to which accessory.
