FZONE Aquarium Glass Mini Skimmer Lily Inflow and Outflow Sets for Mini Nano Tanks Filter Pipes(for 1/2inch Tubing)

The quality of the glass for these pipes is really good it only came with one adapter I needed two I reached out to FZONE's Customer support and they responded within a day and can ship me another adapter. The skimmer works great tank looks really clean.

I own two sets of these and they are very nice and everything functions as it should. Glass is plenty thick although you always have to be a little carefull with glass. I lightly heat my tubing when taking it on and off and it will slide off way easier. The skimmer works as it should but personally I take off the skimmer piece and use a piece of filter foam so I still get flow near the top and nothing can get sucked in. Definitely not worth taking off a star since everybody has different needs, that's just what works for my setup since I run my water a little low because of my hardscape.

This is a fantastic product that’s just right for any nano aquarium! I’m already looking forward to getting more for my aquariums!

I was a bit hesitant based on the other reviews but went for it anyway. My experience has been nothing but positive. This is not a "plug and play" set as you might hope. It takes a little tweaking to get the right suction balance. For me I had to adjust the output of my canister filter so it didn't try to move too much water (the pump is way oversized for my tank) and then tweak the intake balance between the skimmer and screen using the "dial" thing on the bottom of the glass intake piece. On mine the little dial is snug and definitely won't fall out on its own - seems they have the o-ring size figured out. If I left my filter pump on full blast or balanced it too much toward suction from the skimmer, it created so much suction that it pulled air in and caused the gurgling sound another reviewer mentioned. You can see in my pic that I have a nice balance of suction pulling water from the skimmer as evidenced by the water line with the thin layer of scum on it and that it's got a few little sprigs of plants sucked onto it. The bottom also has some little stems stuck on, so it's definitely pulling from both. I keep shrimp in my tank and on two occasions a little guy has been caught in the space between the skimmer extension tube and the main glass it slides into. I have enough moss that baby shrimp don't really get close to the intake so I don't think I've lost any. Looks-wise it's really nice. The lily pipe is basically invisible in the back of my tank. It creates a gentle surface turbulence to help oxygenate, but doesn't break surface tension and release my CO2. As for the sinking skimmer, there is an inverted "tray" on the bottom of the plastic skimmer piece. When you lower the skimmer into the intake, you need to be careful to leave air in that try so it has buoyancy - otherwise it will get sucked right down.

I absolutely love these lily pipes on my 6 gallon nano tank, and I especially love the mini skimmer. The glass pipes sparkle, were easy to install and the mini skimmer works like a dream. However, water evaporates quickly in my little tank and so I have to constantly unstick the suction cups and move the glass lily pipe up or down to keep the skimmer working. Today I went to move the pipe again the way I've done it dozens of times before and it snapped right in half. So now I ordered the stainless steel pipes with mini skimmer.

Product works as advertised, no complaints, except that this product was obviously not manufactured or packaged by FZONE. The box photos and labels do not match the contents, and there is no brand or manufacturing information. No instructions. This is a cheap, generic product; not sure why it's advertised or sold by FZONE. In the past FZONE products have been well packaged, quality all around, and obviously thought through with care for aquarists. Not this. This is just slapped into a box with random pictures on it. Weird.

If the intake gets too much stuff stuck to it, it will cause the surface skimmer to get sucked down below the water level and sometimes the fish get sucked into it. i've lost 3 fish already. Had enough so i cut a piece of tubing quarter of an inch or so and put it on the bottom of the surface skimmer part so the surface skimmer wouldnt bob up and down. Now all i need to do is make sure my water level isnt below it. Also, the bottom piece called the "control knob" doesnt do anything. Even with the rubber gasket around it at the bottom doesnt make it stay in place. The control knob needs to have more surface area with a curve rather than just it being flat. Since its flat, you have to angle it so it fits but it never fits right. Id return everything but so far its the only one I have. I can say however that for my 20 long its pretty much a perfect size. The other one on amazon was way too big for my tank.

Works great on my rimless aquarium, really helping to eliminate surface scum. When I encountered a problem with the surface skimmer breaking on accident, the customer service was willing to replace the part.

Impeccable. Skimmer efficace, réglage simple, complet avec l écouvillon. Les ventouses sont plutôt efficaces.

Beautifully crafted. These are the only glass pipes that are appropriate for a smaller tank under 10 gallons. The skimmer works flawlessly. The lily pipe creates quite a bit of surface agitation. That may be a plus or minus depending on your set up and what you're looking for. No problems using with 1/2" hose, nice tight fit.

Temevo che, nonostante le foto che pubblicizzano il prodotto, questo fosse troppo grande per una vasca "nano". Invece le misure sono perfette! Sto allestendo una vasca 30x30x30 (27 lt) e come si può vedere dalla foto le misure sono assolutamente adeguate. Il vetro è di buona qualità e trasparenza nonostante il prezzo contenuto se paragonato a quello delle marche di riferimento per questo tipo di hobbistica. Assolutamente da consigliare a che sta allestendo un Nano acquario con filtro esterno. Unico neo le ventose che sono decisamente grandi rispetto alla grandezza delle pipes.

This is by far the smallest lilypipe set I have ever seen and that makes me really happy. Why? It is perfect for shallower tanks, which my new UNS 45U is. I had a normal set , which I intended to use, but quickly found out the intake was too long. This Fzone nano set solves that problem. The glass is off good quality and it does feel as sturdy as a normal size set. I do intend to buy another set for another nano tank upstairs.

Schon über ein Jahr im Einsatz. Lassen sich sehr gut reinigen. Funktionieren auch einwandfrei. Optisch auch sehr schön. Würde ich wieder kaufen
