Product description
The lily-shaped glass outflow creates a graceful arc inside planted aquariums, mimicking the sweep of a flower petal and blending with aquatic hardscape.
Made from clear glass, the piece stays unobtrusive while showing off the water motion it creates. The glass finish gives a refined look that complements rimless tanks or planted setups.
The outflow has a 17mm outer diameter meant to fit hoses with a 5/8" inner diameter (commonly listed as 16/22mm tubing). It is compatible with many canister filter brands such as Eheim and Tetra, as well as other popular units that use matching tubing.
Installed on the return hose, the lily directs filtered water back into the tank at a steady, appropriate speed, aiding surface exchange and gentle circulation. The kit includes one glass lily pipe outflow and two suction cups for mounting and placement.
Pros
- Elegant clear glass appearance
- Fits 5/8" (16/22mm) canister tubing
- Includes two suction cups for mounting
Cons
- Glass is fragile if dropped
- May need firm push or hot water to slip over hose
- Packaging can be inconsistent
VerdictThis glass lily outflow combines attractive form with practical function: transparent glass for a subtle look, a 17mm neck that mates with 5/8" (16/22mm) hoses, and included suction cups for positioning. It produces a controlled outflow and helps with surface movement, though the glass is fragile and packaging can be hit-or-miss. A solid option if you want a clean visual and reliable flow from com

Clean, pleasing flow
Creates a neat surface flow and looks attractive in the display.

Solid option for topless tanks
Good quality and unique that they offer a larger 3/4" size too. I couldn't use it with my lided setup, but it fit over the plastic rim of a 40 gal breeder without issue.

Performs as expected
Does the surface skimming I wanted and cleared the top layer quickly. Construction looks nicer than the stock return and the suction cups are high quality.

Worth the upgrade
Pays off to go with this one over cheaper options. Fits 5/8" ID hoses after a hot-water dip and the deeper bend controls flow and prevents the vortex that traps floating plants.

Reliable, keeps me buying
I've tried others and keep returning to this maker. Packaging varies, but the suction cups do their job and the fit on 5/8" hose was exact. The glass feels solid rather than flimsy — I'll reorder.

Does the job but fragile
This 20mm-style outlet pairs well with 19mm (3/4") hose. I've purchased several over time because I break them — well made but glass won't survive a fall.

Large size works well
Needed a bigger outflow for a 75 gallon and this provided plenty of flow. Thick enough glass to handle weekly removal and cleaning when needed.

Attractive and sturdy
Nice craftsmanship. It took effort to stretch the hose over the glass and I worried about breaking it, but it held up. Looks great in the tank so far.

Great first lily pipe
My first purchase of this style — the shape is like a small cup and the angle stays more horizontal than others I've seen. Bought 17mm for 5/8" hose and added a light clamp for security without overtightening.
