Chihiros Double Tap Quick Connector
Make aquarium filter maintenance fast, clean, and hassle-free with the Chihiros Double Tap Quick Connector. Designed for canister filter hoses, this compact connector allows you to instantly shut off water flow and disconnect your filter without spills or mess.
Simply close both taps, press the release, and remove your filter — no leaking hoses, no wet cabinets, and no towels needed. It’s a simple upgrade that makes routine filter maintenance far easier.
The ultra-compact 151mm design is perfect for tight aquarium cabinets where bulky connectors don’t fit well. Built from durable ABS plastic with rubber O-rings, it provides a secure, leak-resistant seal for reliable long-term use.
One of the most popular options is the reducer model, which allows you to connect 12/16mm and 16/22mm hose sizes together. This makes it incredibly useful for aquascapers who want to run different inline equipment with Chihiros gear, helping make more equipment compatible within the same filtration setup.
