Hi All,
I will be getting a TetraTec EX1200 for my Rio 125 soon. Ive gone for a higher than necessary flow becuase I want to stay free of debris and algae that is currently a problem with my 600 L/H internal filter (Such a low flow is making aquascaping impossible). Do the Glass Lily Pipes have different sizes (as in the lily shaped bit on the end) or is the tubing size that helps evenly distribute the flow throughout the tank and prevent a whirlpool?
Also most of the Glass Intake Pipes seem to come with no protection so small fish or shrimp may get sucked into the filter. Is there something else you get to go on the end of it?
