The Dymax Stainless Steel Lily Pipe and Surface Skimmer Set with a 16/22mm diameter is a premium aquarium filtration accessory, especially popular among planted tank enthusiasts (aquascapers).
Key Features
Material: Crafted from surgical grade stainless steel (often 316 grade), which provides a sleek, modern aesthetic and is highly durable.
Durability: Resistant to scratches, rust, stains, and substance buildup. Unlike glass lily pipes, they are not fragile and won't shatter if dropped.
Water Parameters: Suitable for use in both acidic and alkaline water conditions, making them versatile for freshwater planted tanks and saltwater reef aquariums.
Surface Skimmer: Includes an attachable stainless steel surface skimmer on the inflow pipe. This is designed to gently remove unsightly biofilm, oily films, and floating debris from the water surface, which helps improve gas exchange (oxygenation) and light penetration.
Functionality: Helps create consistent water circulation throughout the aquarium, preventing stagnant areas and ensuring proper aeration for aquatic life and plant growth.
Aesthetics: Offers a refined and professional look, keeping the focus on the aquascape rather than bulky, distracting plastic filter equipment.
Maintenance:Easy to disassemble and clean. Although they still collect algae/biofilm internally, the stainless steel construction means you don't see the grime as easily as with transparent glass pipes.
Includes:
1 Outflow Lily Pipe
1 Inflow Lily Pipe (with the surface skimmer attachment)
Hose Clips (or acrylic holders) for securing the pipes to the aquarium rim.
This 16/22mm size is designed to connect to canister filters that use 16mm internal diameter (ID) / 22mm external diameter (OD) hoses.
