This is amazing stuff!

Oh my god! I now have an aquarium bike and have started using the fish feeding method. By the time it hit the two week mark, a 1/8th slimy protein film had formed on the surface of my 22 gallon tank and even with a lot of surface agitation it wouldn't go away. I put this guy in there, played with it for about 30 seconds and BOOM! He started sucking out protein films! Additional Notes: Feeding flakes will instantly suck them into this thing, this is an easy fix! Take the skimmer off for a…

Quality part at a good price

So far I am very happy with this inlet tube for my aquarium. It is used with the Fluval 306 canister filter. Another reviewer mentioned the difficulty of setting up the skimmer. To swim. The skimmer relies on a float, which is essentially an air bladder. The amount of water withdrawn from the skimmer depends on 3 variables [volume capacity of your filter pump, setting of the bottom flow plug and amount of air in the skimmer float]. To adjust the air in the float, simply use a plastic pipette to

Pros
  • Great overall performance
Cons
  • Definitely a bad product

Nice job cleaning the surface but be careful with the shrimp

The tube does a great job cleaning the surface. Good quality. But for some reason my amano shrimp (small, no bigger than adult cherry shrimp) like to climb into the cooking tube from the top. Every morning I had to rescue a few of them from my filter for the first few days (luckily I have a pre-filter that will catch them safe and sound). I then had to stick a piece of styrofoam into the main pipe just below the movable top. I still see a shrimp or two sitting on the foam every other day, but…

  • Great for a small house

  • Expensive

Works well. break easily.

UPDATE: 5/28/20 My husband didn't like the look of the stainless steel enema so he bought another jar from Jardli. This time the influx lasted a few months. But the glass broke again. The ends of the tubes are nice and thick, but there is a very weak point at the bend where the glass is paper thin. We are now on Yardley number three. Let's see how long the third one lasts. That's $60 wasted. ORIGINAL: This inflow looks good enough, although it arrived with a thin crack in the pipe. My husband…

Pros
  • Perfect for outdoor activities
Cons
  • I have no ill will against it, everything is fine

Beautiful but fragile

Although I read many reviews about how fragile this inflow was, I still wanted to try it. It arrived well packaged and was easy to assemble. In the first few weeks he was great. As expected, algae grew on it over time. There have been cases where the skimmer has been sucked in and caused a clog in the primary pipe. I would take the skimmer out and give it and the intake tube a good clean. However, I was not able to clean the inside of the primary tube. At first I tried to pull the base out with

A must for canister filter users

I've been using this for about 8 months now and I LOVE it. Love it. If you have a canister, be sure to replace your regular feed with one that includes a protein skimmer. I never knew how much surface my tank had until it was gone. This skimmer does a great job of keeping the surface clean, but remember it also does a great job of pulling food in before your fish have a chance to eat it. I had to increase the biofiltration of the Fluval 306 canister filter it's attached to to compensate for…
