Does it really remove surface film?

Yes. The intake float sits at the waterline and draws the top layer of water into the filter, which clears oily film and floating debris. It works best with steady filter flow.

Will it fit my filter?

It is a glass pipe set sized by tube diameter, so match the pipe bore to your filter hose and tank size. Small bores suit low-flow filters; large tanks need more flow than this provides.

Can I adjust the flow?

The bottom intake is adjustable, and a flow control valve lets you raise or lower the rate. That also sets how much water is skimmed from the surface.

Is it safe for shrimp and small fish?

The float is meant to keep the intake at the surface and reduce the chance of fish being drawn in. Very small shrimp and fry can still be pulled into a surface skimmer, so check the intake.

Rinse the glass in warm water and clear algae with a soft brush; avoid abrasive pads. Handle it gently, since glass pipes chip easily.

Our take on the YWMJZEU Adjustable Glass Aquatic Lily Tube Water Inflow Outflow Pipe

A clear glass lily pipe set for planted aquariums, combining an inflow and outflow with a surface skimmer. The intake float sits at the waterline so surface film and floating debris get pulled into the filter, and the bottom intake flow is adjustable. It suits aquascapers who want visible glassware and a cleaner surface without a separate skimmer. Compared with plastic pipes it looks better and skims the surface, but glass chips and needs careful handling, and the single small pipe suits modest filter flow rather than large tanks.

About the YWMJZEU Adjustable Glass Aquatic Lily Tube Water Inflow Outflow Pipe

This is a glass lily pipe for aquariums. It works as an inflow and outflow tube set and a water surface skimming filter. It installs easily on an aquarium.

The inflow and outflow tubes create water flow for plant growth. The surface skimmer removes oil film from the water surface. The intake float stays at the surface, and the oil-absorption water level can be controlled.

The inflow at the bottom is adjustable. A flow control valve increases or decreases the flow rate to the filter. This helps filter out impurities and keeps fish from being drawn in.
