CO2 diffusers should provide the best gas solubility, should not be brittle, meaning easy to break (like glass ones), and should be "not ugly" (like plastic ones). It would also be good if they were not too expensive and came in different sizes to choose the right one for the aquarium. Which diffuser meets all these criteria?
In the offers, we find many models that meet one, maybe a maximum of two of the above-mentioned features. For example, a glass one with ceramic - it dissolves well (but not always) and definitely looks nice, but it is very brittle and expensive. Another one: plastic - they usually dissolve well and cannot be destroyed - but they are ugly and also expensive. Which one to choose in this situation?
The only answer to these questions and the only diffuser on the market that meets all the aquarium enthusiast's expectations is the Neo Diffuser. Why? More about that below. It's worth reading because this is not just another silly advertisement.
Ceramic fiber sinter (not to be confused with ceramic sinter):
The ceramic mass is fired, creating small channels - that’s how standard ceramic sinter is made. What is ceramic fiber sinter?
The ceramic mass is subjected to a high electromagnetic impulse, which forms fibers. They are then sintered, pressed under high pressure into a sinter, and fired again.
Thanks to this processing, micro-pores of much smaller diameter and a much greater number than conventional sinter are created. Fiber sinter is not only much denser but also harder and more durable than ordinary sinter. It does not "wear out" over time and does not crack.
Micro sizes:
A natural consequence of the innovative fiber sinter is the possibility of using a smaller diffuser in a given aquarium.
It has been assumed that, for example, a diffuser with a diameter of 2cm is intended for an aquarium of 150 - 200l, while the Neo Diffuser with a diameter of 1.7cm serves an aquarium of up to 250l.
Indeed, the Neo diffuser is nice. But it is the plants, not the diffusers, that should be the decoration of the aquarium. Therefore, smaller diffuser sizes positively affect the aesthetics of the aquarium.
Acrylic body:
Just as beautiful as glass. 100% transparent and aesthetic, but unlike glass, it is unbreakable. Acrylic provides excellent clarity, making the diffuser practically invisible in the tank and allowing the use of the bubble counter mounted inside.
Clip in the U tube. What is it?
As shown in the pictures, the elbow has ends that are not entirely parallel. Why? Because the elbow is flexible. You can stretch it to fit the aquarium wall up to 12mm thick. The U tube will "grab" the glass tightly, keeping the hoses in line.
Included:
- Neo Diffuser Original Clip L
- suction cups x 2
Technical data and purpose:
- for aquarium: from 200l to 350l
- sinter diameter: 23mm
- total height: 34cm
- for hose: standard 6mm (4/6)
