Overview
Legend CO2 Hose PRO™ is a premium food-grade silicone tubing designed specifically for pressurized CO2 systems and other aquarium air delivery applications. Manufactured from high-quality silicone material, the hose combines exceptional flexibility, durability, and long-term reliability while maintaining a clean and professional appearance within modern aquarium installations.
Reliable CO2 delivery depends not only on the regulator and diffuser, but also on the quality of the tubing connecting the entire system. Legend CO2 Hose PRO™ is engineered to provide consistent gas transfer while remaining highly resistant to hardening, cracking, and deformation over time. Unlike conventional PVC tubing that can become rigid, brittle, or difficult to route in cooler environments, the silicone construction remains flexible across a wide range of operating temperatures, making installation and maintenance considerably easier.
The smooth matte exterior is produced through a specialized surface finishing process that provides a soft-touch feel while helping reduce dust accumulation. The food-grade silicone formulation is colourless, odourless, and free from substances that could affect aquarium water quality. Combined with excellent resistance to aging, UV exposure, and environmental stress, Legend CO2 Hose PRO™ provides a dependable long-term solution for aquarists seeking both performance and aesthetics.
Suitable for use with CO2 regulators, bubble counters, check valves, diffusers, reactors, atomizers, and air-driven equipment, Legend CO2 Hose PRO™ offers professional-grade performance for both beginner and advanced aquarium enthusiasts.
Directions
Cut the hose to the desired length using a sharp blade or tubing cutter to ensure a clean and square edge. Connect the tubing securely to the CO2 regulator, bubble counter, check valve, diffuser, atomizer, reactor, or other compatible equipment.
When installing the hose, avoid sharp bends, kinks, or excessive stretching, as these may restrict gas flow or place unnecessary stress on connected components. Route the tubing carefully to achieve smooth curves wherever possible.
After installation, pressurize the system gradually and inspect all connections for proper fitment. If a leak is suspected, disconnect the system and verify that the tubing is fully seated on each fitting before restarting operation.
For best long-term performance, periodically inspect the hose for signs of wear, contamination, or mechanical damage and replace if necessary.
Technical Specifications
FAQ
What advantages does silicone tubing provide over PVC tubing?
Silicone tubing remains flexible over a much wider temperature range than conventional PVC tubing. This flexibility simplifies installation, reduces the likelihood of kinking, and helps maintain a neat appearance around aquarium equipment.
Is Legend CO2 Hose PRO suitable for pressurized CO2 systems?
Yes. The tubing is designed for use with aquarium CO2 equipment including regulators, diffusers, atomizers, bubble counters, and reactors. Proper installation and secure connections are essential for safe operation.
Will the hose become rigid over time?
High-quality silicone remains significantly more flexible than many traditional plastics and is highly resistant to age-related hardening under normal aquarium operating conditions.
Can the tubing be used for air pumps?
Yes. Legend CO2 Hose PRO™ is suitable for both CO2 delivery and air-driven aquarium equipment, including air pumps, air stones, and other low-pressure applications.
Does the tubing affect aquarium water quality?
No. The food-grade silicone material is inert, odourless, and designed for applications where cleanliness and material stability are important.
How should the hose be cleaned?
The exterior may be wiped with a damp cloth as needed. If the interior becomes contaminated, the tubing can be flushed with clean water and allowed to dry completely before reuse.
Safety
For aquarium use only. Keep out of reach of children. Use only with compatible aquarium equipment and ensure all tubing connections are secure before pressurizing a CO2 system. Improper installation may result in gas leaks or equipment malfunction.
Avoid exposing the tubing to sharp objects, excessive mechanical stress, or direct contact with heat sources. Damaged tubing should be replaced immediately to maintain reliable system performance.
When used with pressurized CO2 systems, always verify that regulators, check valves, bubble counters, and diffusers are installed correctly according to the manufacturer's recommendations. Do not use the tubing for applications involving chemicals, fuels, solvents, or liquids not intended for aquarium use. Store in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight when not in use.
