Is this too much weight on a 20g long? I feel like there may be too much leverage. The brass valve is pretty heavy. The vinyl tunig goes to a drain directly below, thanks

if you are worried, swap it out for a pvc valve and just use a barb/thread fitting to connect the hose to it.

but honestly I'd say its fine. you could tie a support to the hose so there isn't as much downward pressure from the weight of the valve.
