Secure hold for hoses and tubes in the aquarium:
The filter tubes of external filters need to be securely fixed to the aquarium glass panes so that they cannot accidentally slip out, yet glass bars on the upper aquarium rim can make this more difficult. The JBL FixSet includes 2 spacers of different lengths which will fix the tubes/hoses correctly, even where glass bars pose a potential hinderance to attachment.
Suction cups:
Rubber suction cups age over time. The harder the water (a lot of magnesium and calcium) the faster the rubber hoses and suction cups age. If the suction power decreases or is no longer guaranteed, they definitely need to be replaced.
Faq
Do the suction cups and spacers fit on hoses and pipes?
The universal set with suction cup and spacer (JBL FixSet) can be used for both round tubes and aquarium hoses of the appropriate diameter. The holders are available in the sizes 12/16 mm, 16/22 mm and 19/27 mm.
JBL FixSet 12/16 for Tidy Canister Plumbing
This FixSet is the small accessory that turns messy canister plumbing into a clean install. It’s a set of suction pads with spacer clips that hold the 12/16mm inlet and outlet pipes of a CristalProfi e4, e7, 900 or comparable external filter firmly against the glass. You get clips at two depths, roughly 2cm and 3.5cm from pane to pipe centre, so you can sit the pipes where the flow works rather than wherever the hose happens to fall.
Secure plumbing matters more than people expect. A pipe that drifts can throw spray, splash the cabinet, or shift flow away from dead spots where waste collects. In our humid climate, dripping and condensation around a loose fitting is a nuisance you want to design out from the start, especially on a wood cabinet.
Suction pads tire over time, so check and reseat them during routine maintenance and replace any that won’t grip. Our canister filter guide and maintenance schedule cover the wider setup; find more filter accessories here.
