Air pump setup

[CTYankee79]

Can someone confirm I have this setup correctly. I’m just running a sponge filter. Wanted to confirm I need both ports on the air pump to be teed into a single line. Just don’t want to damage the pump. There’s a check Valve further down line. Also is that a good amount of air for the sponge do I need to run it into an adjustable valve or gang valve or anything.

Looks good to me. I would hook it to your sponge and see how it does and if u need to add an adjustable valve or anything it should just be a simple cut of the airline and add it in wherever you want it

That is exactly how I run my Fluval Q1 air pumps.

2 ports into 1 T-fitting running a sponge filter.
