Christy, we have a shop here that carries them. What size do you need?

Near Esquimalt, don't recall the name, but I can look it up for you. If they don't have it, VanIsle caries JG as well.

Semi Off Topic here - Has any of you who have worked with JG fittings ever seen a 1/4 or 3/8" JG Gate Valve? Would like to use one for my effluent on my C Reactor..

I have been using one of these (http://www.jlaquatics.com/phpstore/store_pages/product-info.php?product_ID=tf-plmvbb) on my reactor effluent. They work really well even if your effluent flow is very slow.

I use the same type of valve, you can get them at Home Depot in th edrip irrigation section of plumbing. A lot more control over what a JG valve would give.

Have you tried them on the CO2 also?

No, my regulator has it's own valve. I'd go with a steel or brass needle valve for CO2

My GEO came with the irrigation valve but I think I'll be replacing it with the aquaticeco. Thanks Brad.

Mark if your looking for a great CO2 needle valve try the Red Sea (http://www.redseafish.com/product.asp?dir=&catID=99&subID=64&proID=286) it's been working alot better than those stainless planted tank ones and it's cheap.

Yes, I have some of them in those sizes. Water Tiger in Victoria sold them to me.
