Are you team glass lily pipes or team neo flow? 😁 The like button is not made from glass, so you can smash it really hard!

Super cool! Scaping a new tank this week. This is definitely gonna be a must buy!

I'm convinced now. I'll be buying the neo flow soon. Thanks for the review!

Just picked up one of these because of your review. It looks awesome can't wait to try it out

When you first showed neo flow it interested me. Only this problem with the skimmer discouraged me. When I see now they fixed it and added the possibility to install a diffuser convinces me to check it out. Thanks for the video for sure.

Whew! I was just about to buy a second one for my 50p. Good thing you released this video. Im going to wait for my lfs to have this available. I think that built in diffusuer is a great idea. I dont like seeing alot of contraptions inside my tanks. Thats why i try to use in-lines for most of them.

Thx for a great review of the Neo - Just made an order for replacement of lily pipes

I like the idea of the new neo flow being plastic. I can be tough on glass and here is a fix. Let’s see how clear they stay with age . This was an interesting video highlighting the comparison of old to new. Thanks !

I'm very happy with the older version of the pipes but now I want to try these for my other tank! By the way, the Big Shallow is looking so sick. The plants are lush and looking super healthy! I hope to have something similar in my living room one day. :)

big shallow looking very good too

Gut erklärt 👍, vielen dank fürs Video ☺️

I bought the neo flow and really struggle with the skimmer but the new version seems much better. I like the new inlet too as I have shrimp in my tanks and currently have a stainless steel mesh cover over the inlet. Might need to buy one of those 🙂

The addition of the diffuser is very cool! I honestly don't want to add a diffuser to my pipes so something like this would be useful!

Great video MJ. I bought the aquatio products after seeing your last video and am very satisfied with them. I don’t really have a problem with the skimmer - it seems to work but I also have a lot of floating plants so I don’t see a film ever.

I haven't had an aquarium for about 15 years and between you and father fish, I'm inspired to create an aquascape for the first time. I'm on a tight budget so trying make a setup as cheap as possible and your videos are ruining that for me. Today I purchased these lily pipes and still don't have an aquarium setup lol. I'm not mad 😅 Worth the wait to slowly get quality pieces together. I couldn't afford the chihiros so I had a custom LED from Make My Led in Australia. Worth having a look at what they do. You get to choose from 3 colour spectrum and the dispersion angle of the LEDs for the cost of a chihiros A series. Keep up the great content 👏

I have version 1 and what I found solved a lot of the issues was preventing the skimmer from moving. I used a small piece of plastic between the skimmer and the pipe it sits on to hold the skimmer in a fixed position. Seemed to solve the majority of the issues where it wouldn't skim and as I have an ATO it's not affected by water level.

TOP...Good job NEO🔝🔝🔝

Great video MJ! The V2 pipes are a much needed improvement on an already great product 👌 I am very happy with mine

im gona stick with my qanvee inline difuser. it dosnt affect the flow.. what im hoping for is an adjustable tip. where you can point it up or down left and right.. last.. finally the pipes are longer.. and the skimmee too. nice.

Thanks voor de video MJ, ik ben nu team lily pipe maar ben zeer te spreken over de inline diffusor! Minder hardware in beeld op deze manier! Bestelling is geplaatst en laten we eens kijken wat het doet!

Good filter pipes 👍🏻

Really have given up on buying anymore glass since I have managed to break everything including a few replacements , @ least I still have 1 piece left from my once prized ADA set...it's the drop checker , which I also dropped but that time I got lucky 😱 Like In the last comment I mentioned having a little compulsion problem 😏 Now I enjoy being practical, so I will be ordering these right away !! 2nd thought Mark I better order 2 💚💙

It's a very beautiful aquarium tank.

Hello, I recently bought the V2 of these Lilly Pipes, I'm wating until the Dark SM ends and put it. I'm quite surprised that they did this new invention. 13:22. Really nice cats there ;)

I'll think for mine opion these new outflow with the diffusor inside is a excellent method to show less stuff inside the aquarium and easy cleaning. But will it do the work on big tanks? 😉👍

I need this for my new setup

We just bought a glass jet pipe for even more flow, in about a month we'll have 30+ kuhli loaches and hillstream loaches in a river aquarium. We also have the oase biomaster with a heater inside the cannister!! :) I love lilly pipes!!

I've been using the version 2 neo flow skimmer for over a month now and it really solves the problems that the previous skimmer had especially if the water level is much higher than the skimmer pipe.

A correctly positioned outflow lily pipe will create a vortex and basically act as a skimmer.

Never broke glass pipes but I'm switching my glass dymax lily pipes to neos in my 21 gallon (quite shallow) long, Im running an oase biomaster thermo 350 and the only glass lily pipes that fit it have an inflow pipe that is much too long for my tank. I like that neos can be cut to size.

I’ve had my eye on getting the original set for a while, the new version looks even better.

Love the integrated CO2 Diffuser! Any Info an availability in Germany or the Netherlands?

I will definitly get these to try the next time I break my glass lilypipes 😆

I wish they add the shrimp safe inlet in the premium since many tanks have nano shrimp in them

Great video. Why all the padding under the filter? Just curious

Please on your next experiment tanks do a tank coverd with gladrap (to reduce oxygen exchange) vs a no co2 I am curious if it will perform better as there is more co2 between water and the gladrap creating a kind of a co2 reactor tipe thing

Glad they made the clamps thicker, both of mine cracked.

Thanks for the video Mark! I’ve been wanting to switch from hob to canister filter on my 29g only problem is I have a glass lid which stops me from being able to have my inflow and outflow hanging off the sides of the tank. I’d remove the lid but I have 2 young children and don’t want to find anything that shouldn’t be in the tank lol

After this time running the new diffuser, what is your opinion? I have the JBL Proflora Inline, and I am considering changing to this new one from NEO, because I already have the pipes from them.

Glass/acrylic lily pipes are beautiful to look at at first, and then they goes dirty very quick. I then use stainless lily pipes, and those pipes hide the brownish stain inside. I really love the look of the glass lily pipes, but I can't stand cleaning them too often, any tips & trick?

How is new aquario now? Is the skimmer good? And how about the staining? Thanks! :)

Well Shit..I am collecting part for mt 1st ever Aquascape ( reef guy here ) and I bought the V1 off your recommendation/review. still new in the box. I can use a ATO so hopefully I get the good skimmer action. Thanks for all the vids brother I quite like them ,one of a few FW peeps I trust.

Hey brother, love all of the videos that you have been cranking out I have a question for you. What kind of heater do you use on your setups? I have a 60 gallon that I plan do one of your Dutch stylists. You’ve really inspired me over the years. Also what size tank for my co2 should I get and what settings do you recommend?

so what do you use for oxygen for the tank?

hello MJ i have a question for you about these lily pipes i was looking at getting the new Aquario Premium Neo Flow Ver.2 for my biomaster 250 thermo i am using the pipes that come with it at present what size do i need to get so i can just swap out the inlet and outlet and still use the flexi tubing the bio master came with ? it comes in a med and large 13mm and 17mm hope you can help as i am a little confused in which one i need thanks😂

I'm confused in what to get , will the medium or large one fit my sunsun 603b filter pipes.

Good to be able to hide the diffuser.👍

I'm getting ready to set up old 55gallon tanks that had HOB filters in the 90s. Really liking the aesthetics of something like this with a canister filter, but then I hear bad things about them?

Does using the CO2 Mixer with the surface skimmer work? Doesn't a bulk of the CO2 shoot straight out of the skimmer? I currently have the set but have not been using the skimmer for that reason

I prefer inox pipe and for Co2 I prefer inox too ^^ (chihiros for me )

Great video an very usefull info. is there an (online) shop in NL of BE where they have the Neo Mixer? Am planning to buy the Neo Flow, that one I can find online. But the mixer isn't available yet?

How big in cm is neo holder, i want sizes for hole to my glass cover. Thanks

How do you have bubbles everywhere from your substrate?

Are the mixers not for sell yet. Can't seem to find them .us

kde kupim ten neoflow inlet ?

I have no skimmer and no bio film / oil looking stuff, I think the trick is to have as much plants as possible and a big filter.

thanks

Thanks for clearing up two questions I had in my head the past days 1. What is that stuff floating on my water surface 2. Why has nobody put a diffuser in the outflow yet? 😂😂👍🏿

Since you have a canister filter anyway, whats the advantage of having the diffuser on the neo output vs an inline diffuser? Also, regarding your drop checker, is it better to place lower (as you did) or higher? Why?

Will that diffuser work with DIY CO2 ?

BIG shallow has changed BIG time 👍

Hi I use the ver1 but updated to ver2 skimmer for the same reason you pointed out however very disappointed with the clamp bridge & shrimp guard being a little delicate I have broken 3 bridges 1 guard Usually when I have removed them to clean, have them on a oase filosmart 100 thermo twist to release the hoses however the filter placement does not help I will upgrade further once again I like the minimalist approach to Co 2 diffusion and heavier bridge arrangement

Can the new outflow surface skimmer be attached to the old outflow pipe ?

how did your opinion on diffuser done dissolving co2? and I am curious if you have problems with the skimmer, many people complain that it cannot adjust correctly.

Seem a good set, but my issue is that I can't order it anywhere... All the shops in the NL doesn't have the newer version and even greenaqua doesn't have it in stock...

what are the carpet plants on the big shallow?

How come the skimmer is on the outlet and not the inlet side? Surely this means it spits everything back into your tank….am I missing something?

Technical question, I know you use the Oase Biomaster 850.. this one comes with tubes at 16mm.. when I looked the Neo flow.. these come in two sizes.. 13 mm and 17 mm how did you solve the connection to the Biomaster?

Will the new Ver. 2 skimmer fit the Ver. 1 Neo Flow Premium? Since the outflow pipe is a bit shorter. Wondering if I should get the entire Ver. 2 set or just the separated parts that I'm missing.

Estaría genial que un día enseñaras que comen todos tus peces, creo que no tienes un video así, y si lo tienes me podrías decir donde? Gracias!!

This type of skimmer is very good. Because now, I don't worry about any shrimps or fishes that sucked in to skimmer. As you know, skimmer devices sucked in shrimps and small fishes.

Where can I get the new Version 2? Is it already out in EU? Need it for a new project.

Where can you get v2 in the US? Also what's the maximum glass thickness for these? My tank has 3/4" ( 19mm ) thick glass.

How do you find with them getting dirty? I can't decide between these and stainless

how do you clean the aquario neo co2 diffuser, can you make a video on that please?

Where to purchase the new version of neo CO2 mixer and inlet ? I can't seem to get it in Europe.

I run these on my scapes, not had chance to try the inline Co2 yet as I currently use Co2 art inline diffusers. The version 2 skimmer is miles better and I’m no longer having to constantly fiddle, adjusting the skimmer neck. Still not a fan of having the skimmer on the outflow as I have to manually remove old leaf matter which is a pain but this skimmer deals with biofilm break up well. The clamps look a million times stronger and I’ve also broke a couple of mark 1 clamps by over tightening. Word of warning, don’t put these pipes or any parts in hot water to clean them 🤣🤣🤣 I did and I’ve melted the shrimp guard and skimmer pipe, it even made the pipes bend like a banana 🤣🤣🤣.

I ordered also this Ver.2, having now for 2 months. But still struggling a lot with the skimmer. sometimes its working for days, but then its just sliding down...

i want the neo mixer, but cant find a website to buy it anywhere

Hi MJ, where did you buy the neo mixer from? I’m having trouble finding it online

I have the version 1 and when I bought it I pushed the skimmer pipe attachment too far in and it killed my pump. Just before I killed another one I noticed what the problem was. It’s like putting your finger in front of the outflow, my pump makes the same sound in the two occasions. I still use it but it’s skimming nothing because the pipe attachment is further up now.

Did you know that in Poland they sell a supposedly new version but poorer with some elements that you have?

The in-line diffuser seems to be really small! Will be enough for 2 bubbles/second?

Could we get an update? I've been rescuing bad things about the shrimp safe inlet. It slows down flow too much and it cracks. Do you have any insight about these issues?

hey where did you buy all these stuff? couldnt see anywere to buy on their website

Nice video! Reageer je ook in NL? If not, hi haha. I have an juwel rio 180 with an oase biomaster thermo 350. Currently I'm using the spraybar along the whole back of the aquarium and have my return on the opposite side of the spraybar Inlet. I don't get much of an flow though out the aquarium so I'm looking for an other in/outflow and I'm very interested in this product. Now the question, does it matter if you put in and outflow on the same side or in on lets say left and out on the right side of the aquarium ? Because the rio 180 doesn't have enough space to put both on the same side (I guess)

These only work on rimless aquariums?

Which light are you using on the tank?

interesting that the diffuser didn't change much ...

possible to know if you had to increase co2 bubbles?

please tell me which one is the best settings of wrgb2 for the best grow plant?❤️

HI MJ, where did you got the Neo Mixer ? Did you order it directly from Aquario or you found a store somewhere in Europe?

I've been using the original one for a while now myself. Over time the clarity of the pipes has faded and become more milky. Have you had a similar issue, and if so, do you know of a solution to prevent it? Thanks for your videos!

Mark did you get better results with CO2 diffusion with that neo flow/mixer/flow?

Hoi, Waar kan ik de 2e versie bestellen?

What happens to the waste the skimmer picks up?

On the surface, its actually a biofilm of bacteria. People frequently mistake this for oil, but if you can break it into pieces, its not oil.

That film is a "bio-film", or basically huge bacteria colonies.... And having a still surface is bad in general, the surface is basically the only way in for oxygen, and out for co2.. So by constantly recirculate the surface you actually increase the effective surface area of your aquarium. Circulating the surface is the most important, and then getting that mixed into the rest of the aquarium...So filter returns that spreads as much all over the surface is the best....

I red some review about this Aquario neo flow..they told after awhile the pipe will be white.. not clear anymore.. mybe because they easy to scratches

0:45 I want to know what kind of product back screen and lighting is in the fish tank at the beginning of the video.
