Universal Canister Filter Intake

[Carl]

We added a new product to our Plumbing Parts we page

This is a part I made many years back to replace clients intakes for their canister filter when it cracked or some other problem developed.
This is also much more rugged than any original equipment part


From the listing:

*A universal 'U" type water intake adapter that will fit most Aquarium Canister Filters that have either 1/2" or 5/8" (approximately 12-16mm) ID Tubing to the intake side of the canister filter
Examples include: Eheim 2215, 2215, 2217, Via Aqua 750, SunSun 402 & 303, AquaTop 300 & 400, and many many more!!
*Dimensions: 13" pipe with intake holes on 4 sides; 1.75" inside width to fit over aquarium.
Please note that the cap at the end can be removed so that the pipe can be cut via a hacksaw for aquariums of heights under 12"
*Holes on 4 sides for more than adequate flow for all canister filters this would fit
*A Pre-Filer Sponge can be slipped over intake holes for added pre-filtration (If added, we recommend adding a few windings of vinyl tape/electrical tape around the pipe near where the top of the pre-filter sponge would seat for a tighter fit)

So will these fit standard-sized suction cups? I just recently invested in some magnetic holders - they were pretty expensive comparatively but man they are awesome.

Generally the weight of this will not require suction holders

However depending upon the size of your mag clips, you should be able to use them since this is 3/4" OD
