Where to get air line valves, like Dean uses.

Jimmy filmed a fantastic and helpful video of Dean's Brine Shrimp 101. I am trying to find out where I can get the valves used on Dean's Brine Shrimp hatching bottles. 

 

In that video Dean's Brine Shrimp hatching bottles have a valve attached to them. I need help sourcing this exact valve. Thanks for any help. Screenshot_20230122_092609_YouTube.jpg.bb1f0f64e58a24bfd20e5e6b604f1e56.jpg

Look for ones with all plastic construction to keep it more likely to be fish safe

Tried that, no luck. I mean of course I googled it before posting this. 

So are you looking for that specific valve? I could find similar valves available

I just got them installed. They flow much faster than the metal valves that I was using. So that will make harvesting the baby brine shimp go much faster.

 

For anyone who orders some of these Mur-Lok valves, you should also order some "John Guest Locking Clip - 1/4 Inch" (2 per valve). I did not order these because I did not know that I would need them. Luckily I have a 3d printer so I just printed some up and the .stl file was available on thingyverse.
