Sizes and practical uses

The figures 4/6mm mean an inner diameter of 4mm and an outer diameter of 6mm, the same as standard airline tubing, so this hose fits most air pumps, air stones, air valves and connectors made for 4mm tubing. It is not wide enough for canister filter connections, which need larger EHEIM hose sizes, so check the diameter printed on your equipment first. The 3m length lets you run several short air lines or one longer run to a tank across the room. Cut it cleanly with sharp scissors at a right angle so it seals well on the fittings, and warm the end in hot water if it is stiff to push on. Because the hose is transparent, you can spot condensation, algae or blockages early; replace sections that have gone cloudy or hard. Fit a non-return valve between the pump and the water so water cannot siphon back if the power fails.
