Eheim 2211 or Fluval 105 with Nano Lily Pipes
Hello,
I am looking for advice on how to use either an Eheim Classic 2211 or a Fluval 105 canister with 9mm Lily pipes from AquaticMagic (http://aqmagic.com/store/product_info.php?pName=magic-lily-pipe-9mm-set&cName=accessories-lily-pipe). The reason I went with this set instead of the 13mm one is because the dimensions are perfect for my Finnex 4 gallon nano aquarium (dimensions: 12.2"L x 7.5"W x 10.2"H). The 13mm set is way too large.
I am concerned about getting a tight seal from the larger diameter Eheim or Fluval tubing to the smaller diameter glass pipes. What would I have to do to accomplish this? I'd appreciate any advice on this (especially first hand).
I have not yet ordered the filter (planning on doing it when the pipes arrive), so the filter choice is not set in stone. If anyone can suggest a better filter for my tank size and more suitable for use with these lily pipes, that would be great.
Thank you for reading.
