Review on 🌿 FZONE Aquatic Glass Lily Pipe Skimmer Inflow and Outflow: Enhance Your Aquatic Filter System by Gail Rogers

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Definitely not in Zone A

Listen to the manufacturer, he's honest. They tell you straight out that this is a zone F job. Suction cups: They have a function. That's where they fail. They stick most of the time. When applying fragile glass to other fragile glass, make sure your suction cups are really sticking. It's not like this. One star is missing. Introduction: This thing is complete garbage. Other reviewers are telling the truth. The filter wobbles up and down, sucking clumps of air into the filter because the adjustable corner piece below does not fit. It rocks back and forth to let water through no matter where you place it. It should be tight. It's not like this. General. It is designed not only to suck water from the bottom of the tank but also to regulate the top. You know, the only reason you bought this thing. Two more stars away. One for lazy craftsmanship and one for getting me to remake something I paid money for. Conclusion: The thing is good, except for the suction cups. He does exactly what he has to do. It is adjustable and gently returns the water to the aquarium. My corrections: 1. I put an o-ring around the inlet filter stem about 2 inches from the bottom. This will keep the blunt thing from bobbing up and down and filling the filter with air that you'll have to blow out later. I wrapped tape around the bottom of the corner piece that goes into the bottom of the air intake. This helped slow the flow of water into the slats, but didn't solve the problem. It only helps soften it up.3. I cut out a rectangular section of the zippered pocket and lay it on top of the air intake fins at the bottom of the air intake. It's ridiculously cheap and ridiculous, and manages consumption better so the skimmer actually works. This should say something about the quality of the product. That's rubbish if it's not already clear. Bottom Line: Buy this if you hate quality and love spending your time doing the manufacturer's work for you without being paid a penny. Or buy a decent one from a reputable manufacturer. I have one of these and it works perfectly right out of the box. I was supposed to get two but I saved money and got this piece of junk instead. Don't make the same mistake I did. Two stars is very generous for this product.
