"Flow" lily pipe: the invisible filter inlet and outlet

Do you use an external aquarium filter? Are you tired of those ugly, green filter tubes? Then the “Flow” lily pipe is an excellent alternative. You hardly see it in your tank and it creates the ideal flow. This lily pipe set (inlet + outlet) is made of laboratory glass. This makes it not only invisible (or almost), it is also much stronger than other glass.

True, you can find cheaper sets on eBay, but the glass of those is often three times thinner than this lily pipe. The result? At the slightest, the lily pipe breaks with all the consequences: your aquarium empties, your cabinet gets warped by the water and the floor is 1 big puddle!

Save yourself all those nasty situations and choose for quality, it will last much longer & you will have more fun with it.

Ideal for good flow in your tank

I myself have a lily pipe on my nano tank. What I love, besides the fact that they are transparent, is that they provide a good flow in your tank. Because of the shape of the outlet, it creates a deep and wide water flow. Result: waste products are better disposed of and nutrients are more easily brought to the plants. This not only makes your aquarium cleaner, it also helps your plants grow better.

By the way, if your filter is strong enough, a small “vortex” is created just below the water surface. Ideal for bringing some oxygen into the water for your fish, without expelling your CO2.

Different sizes: "perfect fit" with your aquarium

Depending on the size of your aquarium, you can fit a different Flow lily pipe. In the FAQ below, I explain which model you need for your tank. Depending on the size of your aquarium, the spacing, the hose diameter and the width of the “calyx” will differ for optimal water circulation.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How should I connect my lily pipe?

You get free suction cups with your “Flow” lily pipe. You can “stick” the lily pipe to the outside of your aquarium. Make sure that there is as little air as possible under the suction cups and that your lily pipe is upright.

How do I install the hose on the lily pipe?

Be careful because it is and always will be glass, even if it is reinforced laboratory glass. You should certainly never apply pressure, and certainly not on the bent pieces.

The best way is to soften your filter hose by dipping the end in boiling water for about ten seconds. Then slowly slide the hose over the bottom piece of your lily pipe, to about 1cm or more over the edge.

How do I clean my lily pipe?

The safest way is to push the filter hose upward (as if you were attaching the hose for the first time). By doing so, you break the “air seal” and can much more easily slide the filter hose back down. Then just clean the lily pipe and filter hose with a tube brush and some filter wool.
