Is this all I need?

[Fishalicious]

Okay well I decided to buy a Rena 300 Air Pump off of Ebay (the price was right; $30.29 new incl shipping..I got lucky)

Okay well I'm new to aerating a tank so I have some questions.

Although the Rena has one outlet, I plan on using it for my 55 Gallon and my 10 gallon QT (running one device each). Is this okay? It's rated for up to a 75 gallon tank so I assume it is.

Now my questions..

In order to do this, what will I need?
From doing minimal research I've figured that I would need:

-Durable Tubing (Any recommendations?)
-1 Penn Plax Lok-Tite 2 1/2 Way Brass Gang Valve (This is so I can distribute lets say 75% pressure to the 55 and 25% to the 10gal, right? And no need for the "T" valve @ the beginning with this?)
-2 Penn Plax Check Valves / Air Filter
-Air Stone/Bubble Disk/Bubble Wall etc...

Can anyone recommend the suction cups to keep the tubing in check or will they just create more hassle?

Please let me know and TIA

good research Dan. You're correct. With tubing, I've found the more flexible it is, the easier to work with. Any suction cup should do.

Thanks Brian!

I thought I was right but I wanted to make sure before I went out and bought everything (or ordered from bigals)

With the tubing, will do! I'll buy the pro stuff.
I really appreciate the reply.

Haven't had a chance to say it much but I really love all you guys.
This forum ROCKS!!!!!!!!
