## Long description

Replacement inlet extension tube designed for Fluval FX series external aquarium filters. This narrow, adjustable tube increases intake reach and allows flexible positioning of the inlet for improved water draw from different tank heights or from a sump. The extension is compatible with Fluval FX inlet fittings and is intended to work with the existing intake assembly to tailor flow direction and placement without modifying the filter itself.
Advantages
The inlet extension offers adjustable length to fit various aquarium and sump configurations and helps relocate the intake to reduce debris entry and improve circulation in targeted areas of the tank. Manufactured to match the dimensions of Fluval FX inlet fittings, the tube provides a simple, low-effort solution to extend suction reach while maintaining a secure connection to the existing intake hardware.
Suitable for
 Extending intake reach in Fluval FX external filter installations
 Repositioning inlet away from substrate or decoration to reduce clogging
 Adapting intake height for tanks with overflows or sump systems
 Directing flow to specific aquarium zones for improved circulation
Key specifications
 Narrow, adjustable tube profile compatible with Fluval FX inlet fittings
 Length designed to extend intake reach for varied tank heights and sump setups
 Material: durable aquarium-safe plastic (rigid or semi-rigid)
 Connection: designed to mate with standard Fluval FX inlet assembly components
 Finish: smooth internal surface to reduce trapping of debris and minimize flow resistance
How to use
Turn off the Fluval FX filter and disconnect power before adjusting the intake. Remove the existing inlet piece from the filter intake assembly and slide the inlet extension onto the inlet fitting until it seats securely. Adjust the exposed length as needed to position the intake at the desired height and angle inside the aquarium or sump. Ensure all connections are snug and properly aligned, then restart the filter and check for leaks or reduced flow. Reposition as necessary to optimize suction and prevent contact with substrate or decor.
Usage recommendations
Regularly inspect the inlet extension for blockages and clean it during routine filter maintenance. Avoid sharp bends that can restrict flow and ensure the extension does not rest on gravel or sand to reduce clogging. When used with a sump, confirm intake height and orientation to prevent air entrainment and maintain steady flow to the external filter.
