The Aquario Neo Skimmer was designed as an accessory for the Aquario NEO Flow Aquarium Lily Pipe Normal Set. The purpose of the Neo Skimmer is to remove surface oils from an aquarium without too much distraction. Typical aquarium lily pipe surface skimmers are located on the inflow pipe and are large in comparison. The classic lily pipe surface skimmer design generally functions well, however, it can be rendered ineffective and non-functional if the water level of an aquarium falls below a certain point. In addition, the size of a typical lily pipe surface skimmer is much larger in design in order to match the lily pipe sizing. This is not the case with the Aquario Neo Skimmer. It should be attached to the outflow which means little to no distraction and will not hinder the performance of an aquarium canister filter if the water level drops below it. The height can also be adjusted to user preference and provide the most effective performance.

The Aquario Neo Skimmer can also be used in conjunction with the Neo Reliever in order to create an added gentler flow. This is perfect for fish keepers who have more flow sensitive fish and shrimp such as Bettas, Ricefish, Guppies, Neo Caridina, Caridina, and much more.

The Aquario Neo Skimmer can be fully disassembled for quick and easy cleaning and is made from durable PETG material as opposed to glass. However, excessive force can still break or crack this product. Please handle with care.

Sizing: Medium fits 13MM and Large fits 17MM

Reviews

Works great !

"I love this Neo acrylic products . Easy to swap out outlet parts to adjust the flow and no worry of breaking them like the glass outlets . I feel a lot more relaxed when I use these and have to clean them plus they work very well . I especially like the inlet shrimp protector piece . It’s easy to clean and my little shrimp never get sucked up through the inlet tube openings ."

Good lily pipe

"I like the aquario neo lily pipes as the acrylic is more flexible and I’ve broken my share of glass lily pipes in the past. It comes with a little remival diffuser for the middle of the lily pipes in case flow is too strong. Depending on positioning the outflow will also gently agitate the surface."

Neoflow

"I really like these pipes, but there are two down sides. The bracket is finicky, and the plastic can be brittle especially the elbow piece. If they could reinforce the elbow joint and use a different bracket design these would be perfect. Still its worth it to me to not have to worry about breaking a pipe while cleaning. The flow is good and the skimmer is easy to adjust."

Caitlin B. (4/5)

"knew this was gonna work but didn’t expect it to work this good. really calmed down my cannister’s output for my 40g betta and tetra tank. fits perfectly in an Eheim classic’s outlet pipe"

Lou (5/5)

Neo Flow

"Using the Neo Flow pipes with a Oase biomaster2, my first time with a canister filter. I like the look of clear pipes and didn’t want to worry about breaking glass, the PETG feels durable and it easy to cut. I also added the Neo outlet, so I can’t really comment on the flow control outlet, as well as adding the Neo inlet with the small holes. Instructions mostly rely on pictures, but set up is not hard to figure out. The skimmer takes some time and fiddling to get adjusted right, and doesn’t take much to get clogged or affected by water level. I do like it being on the outlet, and it does help catch some plant debris. Overall really happy with the Neo Flow lily pipes."

These lily pipes look amazing

"These lily pipes look amazing in my tank."

Justin P. (5/5)

Another winner from Aquario Neo

"This is a cleverly designed little gadget! It installed easily onto my aquarium's lily pipe and, so far, has worked perfectly. The CO2 bubbles are so fine they're hardly noticeable, and they don't seem to sprint to the surface as quickly as those produced by conventional diffusers. It's been working for a week now, and in that time my plants have enjoyed a nice little growth spurt!"

John M. (5/5)

Does exactly what you need it to do

"I like this piece. I initially purchased the neo flow pipes because the neo reliever + PETG + skimmer on the outflow sounded like a gnarly combo. Then I got into high tech scaping and realized I needed strong directional flow to circulate the CO2. I didn’t want to buy new expensive pipes at the time so this piece came in clutch. Honestly, the diffusion is much better than I expected, considering how simple the shape is. The shape is not as fine tuned as ADA tier pipes (obviously), but they get the job done pretty well. It also comes with a little flow diffuser piece that snaps into the inside of the bulb which is dope. It’s nice to have a modular lily pipes on the market because the hobby’s crazy obsession with minimalism can be brutal for people who can’t afford to casually keep a closet full of expensive paperweights."

Matthew H. (5/5)

Clean looking and functional

"Easy to install. Looks very clean on my 60U setup. I'm not using the reliever but replaced with the neo outlet. With this setup flow seems great and seeing movement around entire tank including the carpet."

Christopher G. (5/5)

Neo Flow Inlet

"Works as advertised. Gives me peace of mind for my shrimp without having a bulky foam cover."
