    Well air pumps aren't too expensive and easily available. If the rubber piece breaks, just buy a new one. I still have a working Hailea 4 outlet airpump. Had expected the rubber piece to break since the pump has been in storage for almost 2 years. Oddly it's still in good shape.

    In any case, in Singapore's humid climate, those rubber stuff don't last long anyway. Maybe those Eheim air pumps might last longer.

    Hmm...the soft soft tube tend to be on the down side. Harder ones can last slightly longer. I am trying a short piece which I bought from biotope which is much harder and have more transparent surface than ordinary hard ones. Will see how after being tekan by my DIY CO2...going to de-com No.2 soon. Thinking about collecting bottles after CNY and rebuilt a even more solid one..heh heh. Have taken several designs of the DIY CO2 from various sites. And no, it will not go kaboomba. ha...

    Stormy...still remember beetle? Don't see beetle pumps anywhere easily nowadays. I know Eheim tubes confirmed lasting...lol. Tried and tested.
