I have been to all of my local hardware stores trying to find valves like these ones in the link below. Anyone know who's rig this is so maybe I can contact him about this. I got these off of the [H]ard|Forum about six months ago and don't remember use posted them.

Thanks!!

that is Turbokeu's outstanding watercooled PC70. I know he made a lot of that rig himself completly custom, but I am fairly sure he got those fittings from Eheim. Try visiting http://www.eheim.com you should be able to find them there. I don't know about pricing or availability (especially if you are not in Germany or the US) but they should be there. Also Swiftech uses a similar system in their barebones system which you can find at http://www.swiftnets.com. Hope this helps.

I think these are the ones he used: http://www.drsfostersmith.com/produc...=6&pCatId=4087

But you may find some even better suited at mcmaster.com

You can get those from Eheim directly. www.McMaster.com has a lot of other valves that perform the same function as well. If you are making the air trap that is in the pics, you don't need the valves. Those are good for priming an inline, non-reservoir system, but if you have an air trap like that, the valves don't serve too much of a purpose as long as you can fill from the reservoir.

Thanks Kevin!!!

I thought the valves were needed but you enlightened me on using the airtrap to fill the system.

I don't want to add anything that isn't necassary or will make my life easier.
