Suction Cups

[Kye88]

Hi,

Purchased some Blau nano inlet/outlet glassware but it doesn’t come with any suction cups.
Any ideas where I could order some from? Don’t seem to have them on the nanos unlike the larger models?
Thanks in advance

Is it 9/12mm gauge? It actually doesn't matter as suction cups are available for all sizes. There should be 3rd party suction cups & clips available for all pipe gauges if you can't pin down Blau ones (Think Blau is actually either manufactured or Spanish owned). Transparent ones too if you're lucky.
Didn't get any with a Blau HOB drop checker I bought either iirc.

I'm running an Oase Filtosmart 60 on one of my tanks with the supplied input/outputs. The Oase suction cups themselves are probably the best I've yet experienced but the actual pipe gripping parts are very brittle. I've ended up replacing some of them with Eheim. The Eheims have the opposite issue - the suction cups aren't that good but the plastic grips are simple and stronger. They also allow the mounting of my spraybar closer to the back wall than the Oase ones. Importsnt if you're using a spraybar as your co2 distribution method as well as surface agitator.

All the best
