Hey dude, I am going to start a 75 gallon aquarium, and I really wanna have if you have ideas so I can make it.
I hope your read this, thank you!!!!
I know this is a very old video but I wanted to see if you knew whether or not you can bend the new version that is not extended?
Thanks for the video I got the extended one in the mail today. You are my favourite aquascaper out there, so informative and love your vibe. Keep it up hope to one day have a workshop from you.
Hi Jurijs,
great video. We do recommend to keep the acrylic above the flame of the lighter (Approx. 1-3 cm). Than you will not encounter the coloring of the acrylic tube.
Pin it!!
Just wrap the section you want to bend in aluminium foil while heating. Include a little foil in packaging?
I'm curious if submerging the acrylic in a boiling pot of water would be enough. If not, would a hair dryer? Best bet is probably a heat gun but for those don't have that, maybe those could be viable options.
@@GirthBrooks775 Heat gun on medium/high works great.
Perfect! I need this for my next project thank you
Awesome design. Reminds me of the acrylic floating tubes you can make for your aquarium to separate and organize floating plants
Thank you for this tutorial! I like this CO2 diffuser. I'll purchase this one when I'm ready for another one. Thanks!
The bendable feature is just great 👍
Morning Jurijs, that looks really interesting, looking forward to checking this out soon. 😉 thanks for sharing. Have a nice weekend. 👍
Thanks Terry, I guess by the time of your visit I will have Upgraded all of my scapes to this diffuser 😉
Great Video Jurijs :)
Nice demo!
Great idea!
Great review video.
Oooooh. Love love love that.
So beautiful and educational vedio..u r best in high tech tank....u always give amazing tips ...u give us motivation to keep this hobby
Heat gun with 180 C for acrylics. Perfect bend and color. The silicone tubing is to prevent the bend from sticking together and obstructing the flow, that can happen when bending tubings with voided inner parts.
Thanks Tibor, I will look into small heat gun options. I think it can be handy with filter tubes too
@@JurijsJutjajevs I used to bend all my tubings including filter tubings with heat guns and silicone inner things. On my aquascaping channel @Aqua Garden I am preparing a video how to do that like a pro at home.
Just did it today and it looks awesome. I’ve managed to clean the black smoke on the acrylic with....with...nail polish solution aka acetone, just a drop on a tissue it’s sufficient 😜
A very interesting product.
I’m going to use a candle to heat it. It allows me to use both hands and not get too close. Precision is always key 😊
do you fill water into the diffuser? its kinda hard to fill in water such a tight pipe..
Thank U for sharing ! (y)
great diffuser
Congratulations 😍😍😍 i wan it
Hey Jurijs, what size do you recommend for a 14 gallon (52 litre) aquarium?
Great idea I would definitely buy this if it was available in my country amazing good job
I hope they will become widely available
I think a heatgun is a better solution then a direct fire to prevent discoloring. Nice product and really nice to have the test pieces tho.
Not everyone has a heatgone at home but I agree, it’s probably the better tool for that
I'm curious if a simple hair dryer would work
@@ErrdilPhalar For that small diameter propably yes.
@@ErrdilPhalar good idea!
Flame is ok, but don't put the acrylic inside te flame, above is hot enough ;)
Very nice! Super small bubbles :)
I think i will by one for my nano tank
PC hardline tubing is now here in aquascaping .. love it
These are the best, worth the little extra money.
Use a heat gun or keep it above the flame! I built a few custom loops for water cooled pc's so I've got more hours of practice than I care! Best way is to place heat gun on the table facing up and use both your hands to maneuver and control the tube over the heat. the correct distance from the heat source takes a bit to get, but roughly an an inch or two is good. Thanks for the review, about to pick one up from buceplant. Wish I knew about this sooner bc I took delivery of the regular Neo just yesterday. Always need backups and spares tho!
Love the Aquario defusers! Try using a heat gun to do the bends you don't have the burning like you do on an open flame :)
Hi Jurijs! Have you ever had problems with the flexible co2 tubing popping off of the aquario neo diffuser? This has stopped me from using co2 in my tank... Any tips?
Cut of small piece of your tubing and try again. Don’t lubricate the acrylic and slide 2cm of tubing on it. This should hold
Hi Jurijs which one or which band co2 diffuser recommends for Ada 60 p tank use ? Thanks
Smal or Medium size will be good
Hello, I live in washington and I cant buy from your store. Is there somewhere else i can find these diffusers?
Thanks for the review Jurijs! The one thing I have not done is CO2. I think it's more of being nervous to try it even though I know it's better for the aquascape. One day I will make the jump lol!
Try diy co2 any method works fine, yeast is cheaper but it gets the job done
Neo difuser or Twinstar ? Thanks
We’ve been doing this for years in water cooled PC’s use a heat gun (or wind proof lighter at a distance), a naked flame will always cause discolouration.
need a heat gun 😆
Top!!!
I need! If you use a heat gun it wont change color! Loved the video bro! 🙏🙂
Having some trouble with these.. got a few of them for multiple tanks, and every single one of them makes a loud whistling sound. Some right out of box, some in a few days. Anyone has any idea how to fix this?
Give them a bleach bath, make sure to neutralize/use “Chlor off” afterwards
Hey nice video, what i have to note to get the bubble count? In some videos there are no bubbles to count under the diffusor.
use bubble counter, or dont, drop checker is better 😉
@@JurijsJutjajevs how to get the bubbles coming? I use it only for rough measures
Hi Jurijs, nice video. Do You recomend me use a bubble counter with this diffusor? Or is useless? Can i see bubbles in the small pipe of NEO diffusor size S? Thanks, A.
it depends for what purpose you need to count the bubbles. old version Neo diffuser will have different size bubbles formed inside the diffuser body compared to a bubble counter. New flat type Neo diffuser body is too small imo to be used as a bubble counter. If you only want to have an estimate, I guess its possible. I recommend using drop checker or measuring ph and kh for accurate Co2 dosing
Good, thank you for your answer. A.
I'm having problems with the item that is the water returns to the line when co2 Automatically switched off even if I use check valve
Usually it’s not a problem, and the water is pushed out next day. If you for whatever reason want to prevent this from happening, observe how long it takes for the water to get inside the diffuser and set your Co2 timer to go on briefly every given period of time. But honestly, I never bothered about this, maybe make sure you’re using co2 proof tubing as it can help
Thanks for sharing. I am having a tough time deciding if I should go with an in tank defused or a inline defuser. What is your opinion?
In tank you see the amount of bubbles, maintenance is super easy and no risk of leaking.
I'm wondering this myself.
Garrett Kimble I’ve had both. Go for inline. Not only is there practically no maintenance (you need to clean algae off I tank diffusers), but it also looks nicer and allows better distribution of co2. Also, something I found when using an intank diffuser is that you can hear a high pitch noise as the bubbles are forced through the ceramic, which you can’t hear from inline. As the basis of your decision, if you’re getting a nano tank (below 60 litres) use in tank, anything bigger than that use inline.
Where can I get the extended version in America?
Hello! I really enjoy all your video guys. I have a quick question. Is it good or bad to place the Co2 diffuser just next to the suction pipe of my external filter? I'm thinking like this the Co2 has more time to dissolve in the water before being injected back to the tank via the outlet pipe. But maybe the Co2 concentration will be too high for my beneficial bacteria inside my external filter.
What are your thought about it ?
It is usually not recommended, but I’ve done it my self with in-line diffuser before and it works.
Can we try this in bowl.
I bought a Twinstar small diffuser and I love it. Do these diffuser have a life span? How often do they need to be replaced?
you can use them many years, until they breake. just give them a rinse an a bleach solution from time to time, this removes algae spores from the ceramic and allows it to produce fine co2 mist
@@JurijsJutjajevs Thanks for the reply Juris. Does the ceramic ring need to be specially cleaned or the bleach would do it by itself?
I got one..... and tell you...... if bending small angle its ok, but for more bigger angle its hard to get perfect. Diffuser like product works great very small bubbles, i like it. And if something goes wrong always can cat diffuser shorter :)
I need one for 120 gal tank .. you think this one can handle it
the large one possibly can
Hast du ausprobiert ob es reicht wenn man das Röhrchen neben die Flamme hält ? Dann gibt es vielleicht keine Verfärbung
Noch nicht, aber habe das nun häufiger gehört
Great diffuser. Small misty bubbles. However the epoxy holding down the stone came loose on 2 copies so far. First went into warranty replacement. I have re-glued the second one because I believe the issue is on my side. So far holding all right. Do you guys have similar issues?
I have the same issues, i had the first one replaced and it did the same thing. i reglued it, but its not the same, i thought i was the only one
Any PC builders here that also knew exactly why it was long when the rubber rope came out?
Angel Castaneda yep lol
ah, fellow PC enthusiasts :)
All about that loop 🤙🏼
👌🏼 the bends he did hurt my eyes
Erinnert mich sehr an die Technik zur Herstellung von gebogenen Teilen für Blechblasinstrumente 😁
Can we change the ceramic only or the whole thing?
Whole thing
Nice co2 difusser
Heatgun would be a better way bending the tubing.. I'd be getting one of these
“Get it a little bit wet, and scrub off all the smoke, & fire”
-Jurijs Jutjajevs: 2021
It doesn't look like the new style is available in the US yet. Any insight on when that might change?
I don't know, I have asked the manufacturer but no response yet. If you really want, you can order from Aqusabi, they are shipping worldwide ;)
It’s like bending tubes for water cooling PC setups you should use a heat gun instead of lighter the rubber tube is to help the acrylic keep its shape when bending
Can I use this co2 diffuse with HOB filter. Is this disturb co2 diffusion.
What kind of filter you are using in this nano tank as canister filters are big in this.
yes works with HOB filters too. place inside the HOB filter or below the outflow. I'm using a small canister filter on this scape
@@JurijsJutjajevs Thanks for info 👍
May i ask you is there any difference between aquario neo and aquario twinstar diffuser?
The old model is the same 1:1
The new ones only available from aquario
@@JurijsJutjajevs i have bought one online yesterday on their website it says aquario twinstar..and it says twinstar on packing
55 gallon 240 liter is this too small for this diffuser?
Large
I would like to know why the size of the diffuser pad would matter if you are releasing the same amount of co2 from the tank?
Pressure vs area. Pressure over a larger area creates smaller bubbles. Like a water hose with a tiny nozzle, it'll put more pressure into a tiny area forcing it to come out faster, which you do not want as it will be bigger bubbles that do not dissipate in the water. You want a mist, that dissolves before reaching the surface.
You should explain what is the difference between the old white diffuser and the new brown diffuser first.
Aquario never had a white disk on Co2 diffusers. Maybe you have seen their Air version? They remain white until today
Kann der lange mit einer u pipe verbunden werden und auf der anderen Seite der schlauch? :-) Mein aquarium ist 60 tief daher bräuchte ich gar nicht biegen.. lg aus Berlin
ja klar, kannst auch ein J glass nehmen und mit kurzem Silikon schlauch verbinden
the "rubber thing" is to prevent the acrylic tube from kinking when you bend it, it makes the curve flawless! xD
Yeah, I had difficulties finding the right words to explain that. Thank you 😊
@@JurijsJutjajevs you're welcome! =D and by the way nice job!
If you look at the curve with the "rubber thing" inserted it is quite obviously NOT flawless. It looks a fucking mess if we are honest.
@@Tass... You're always going to get some distortion as your stretching the outside and compressing the inside of the bend, would hardly call it a mess though. Unless your referring to the smokey look? In which case a heat gun would alleviate that issue. Think it's a really good idea to be honest, holds securely and more durable than glass.
@@Tass... if you have the time czcams.com/video/nRzypS4P9V8/video.html , at the end you can see flawless bends! =)
Y cuanto cuesta eso?
How can you fill the diffuser with water?
it happens on its own, once the solenoid turns off co2 at night
Maybe if you use a very hot hair dryer, it might bend without the smoked look??? Just a thought.
Where can I purchase the silicon insert? Alternatively, is the diameter of the silicone insert?
I don't think its available as separate part, you can use cable wires instead, just find the right diameter for your needs
whats the recommended max aquarium size in liters for the S/M/L- Version?
I really want to know this too. Would love to buy one, but the lack of info on what size is holding me back. @Jurijs, can you help us?
blu3leg3nd The recommend sizes are small is for 10 - 60 Liters. The medium is for 60 - 120 Liters and the large is for 120 - 250 Litres. Best diffuser I’ve used.
@@falconfpv9467 Brilliant, thanks so much! :) Have you ever tried them with Bio CO2?
RLine Pixels where do u get this Information i only found the specs for the old diffuser.
Jules Bartl I’ve only ever used pressurised Co2
How do you know what size you need. I have a 50 gallon tank. S M L ?
Large
In my experience it's better to use 'heat gun" instead lighter.. pipe inserted coz when pipe bend it's not squeezed but keep "constant dia"
anyone knows the difference between these and the twinstar ? They are identical !!!
Belinya gimana
Butane lighters or a heat gun should allow this to be bent without the soot and discoloration. Lighter fluid is a fairly dirty burn by comparison to butane.
How to get in the US? I am in the market for a new diffuser but I cannot find this one anywhere?
Old version is linked in the description, new version I couldn’t find yet
Thx. I'll be looking for it!
This is better than twinstar difusers?
Aquario is the original
Mir gefällt deine Wohnung, da hat jemand Geschmack
Vielen Dank
Hey i from England. Where i can buy the difuser please. Thanks
Me too. Check with Aquarium Gardens. They've always had the standard ones on their website, maybe ring them up and ask if they'll be getting these in? I might give them a nudge too. The more people ask the more likely they are to start stocking them. :)
@@julesbartl9431 thanks so much i will
Hi everybody, my first gen one is making annoying hissing sound, IS this one as noisy?
I haven’t compared both as I never had a hiss issue. Yes you can hear it, but it has never bothered me. Also individual diffusers can sound differently. Maybe a bleach clean can help you, maybe you can find someone who has the same like you have and compare the hiss volume
@@JurijsJutjajevs the one from my Friend is noisy too, but my do!Aqua IS the same...I find it distracting so I got an inline now, the bazooka from CO2 art IS totally silent. Cheers
There is one for everyone, I’m not here to promote this product, if you have one that you are happy with. Cool. Enjoy the plant growth, because they all work and the Co2 gas is the same 😉
@@JurijsJutjajevs sure, but it might be useful for beginners to Say that these kind of diffuser aren't silent. The hiss noise has Always bothered me when I'm.contemplating my tank and I've Lost an good amount of Money finding one that is silent...and those aren't. Cheers
How much psi does it take before you start seeing co2 bubbles?
This diffusers will even work with DIY yeast co2. Don’t know how much PSI that isC nur very small amount
@@JurijsJutjajevs I ask because after it arrived, I was so excited. Placed the diffuser in a cup of water and tried to blow through it haha. Nothing happened. I assumed I didn't reach high enough psi.
Why does my diffuser keep filling with water when my regulator turns off at night
Pressure inside it drops overnight as co2 inside dissolves in water and water fills the vacuum
@@JurijsJutjajevs when the co2 comes back on it doesn’t push the water out, it blows the tube off the diffuser
@@YungRekless then your tube sits loose on the diffuser and you have to use a tighter tube. you could also push the diffuser deeper into the tube and you could try cleaning the diffuser with bleach to make it easier for co2 to push out water
I'm scared to get Co2 since the last time the Thing exploded on me, so I never tried again, so any tip on how to avoid it exploding on me? And what brand is beginner-friendly?
I used Fluval Pressurized CO2 Kit, 45 grams
NEVER AGAIN going back to it
what exactly exploded? Usually all kits are safe to use (if you follow the manual)
@@JurijsJutjajevs the tubes, I was very skeptical, so I read the manual and watch many videos
I recently discovered this happened often with that brand
As to prevent the tubing from popping off of the acrylic pipe I got the idea that the tubing between the diffuser and check valve should be kept as short as possible thereby minimizing water from flowing backwards into the tubing. I have not tried that by myself but will do soon since the system failed on me a couple of times also. I suppose the pressure builds up too high if CO2 forces too great an amount of water out of the diffuser. In other words I reckon gas passes the diffuser plate easier than water. Seems as if this is the flip side of the very tiny bubbles it can create. Cleaning thoroughly with citric acid and chlorine is mandatory once a week also. Another idea for those of you who encounter similar problems is to add some drops of citric acid into the acrylic pipe itself and see if that helps.
Doesn’t the acrylic color, or transparency change and become yellow/cloudy over time ?
No coloring, but if you scrub it with a brush it can become scratched. But usually one is using bleach for cleaning diffusers and not hard brushes so that’s no problem
What do you think make the bubbles so small with this line of diffusers ?
👍🏻
Use a heating gun. Not a lighter. Much more control and you dont get that hazy black shimmer on the aqrylic
Jurijs 3:30 "putting rubber inside acrylic stops it from melting or whatever"
yes thank you!
Use a heat gun to prevent the blacken effect on the acrylic
Hot water make it easier and keep clear.
if you boil water and pour over the bending point you could do it the same way, without burning it black? rs
Have you tried that?
maybe heatgun to avoid burn marks
Woylnt look so smokey if you used a clean flame (blue)
Yes or heat gun, next time I will try
I just spent $16 on a JARDLI one and now they have these?!?
The original was great, but the new version looks excellent - shame I’m about to change my co2 to inline.
After your first filter and tubing maintenance you will consider switching back 😉
You won't regret, just buy an good one like the CO2 art.
Jurijs Jutjajevs Haha! I can imagine, however, I’m committed to giving it a try. I already have it, co2 Art inline, which I’m fitting tomorrow.
fishtiti Yes, my co2 system is co2 Art (including the inline diffuser, which I’m fitting tomorrow).
@@RG-yi2tv awesome stuff, good choice. 👌
The old twinstar neo diffusers were a lot better and have a longer live spawn, with and without cleaning it. New type died on me less than 6 months, with proper maintenance...
What happened?
I don’t understand why hydroponic user don’t research this, this would be amazing with plants
Adding co2 in hydroponic system?

@@JurijsJutjajevs not yet on this diffuser but on similar acrylic tube.
Next time try using heat gun to soften it it will not leave any dicoloration.
I have this diffuser and it whistles/chirps all day. I hate this junk.
