Seachem Glass Inline Diffuser 13mm
Crystal-Clear CO₂ Diffusion for a Cleaner Aquascape
The Seachem Glass Inline Diffuser 13mm is designed to deliver highly efficient CO₂ dissolution while keeping all equipment outside the aquarium, preserving a clean, unobstructed aquascape. Installed directly on your filter’s outflow line, it maximizes CO₂ solubility and creates stable CO₂ levels for healthier plant growth.
Key Features
- Minimises visible equipment inside the aquarium
- Highly efficient pollen-style CO₂ diffusion
- Promotes consistent CO₂ levels and reduces waste
- Installs on the outflow line of your canister filter or pump
- Compatible with 12 mm ID / 16 mm OD hoses
- Works with 6 mm (1/4") CO₂ airline tubing
- Includes suction cups for secure mounting
Product Description
The 13 mm Seachem Glass Inline Diffuser is placed externally along your filter’s outflow hose, allowing CO₂ to dissolve rapidly into the water column before returning to the aquarium. This setup removes the need for in-tank diffusers, making CO₂ injection almost invisible while improving efficiency.
This inline method ensures:
- Faster CO₂ dissolution
- More consistent injection rates
- Reduced CO₂ loss or overdosing
- A cleaner, simplified aquascape layout
Compatible with 12/16 mm filter hoses and standard 6 mm airline tubing.
Directions
- Rinse glassware with warm water before use.
- Cut your 12/16 mm filter hose to position the diffuser vertically next to the aquarium.
- Attach the hose so the diffuser disc faces upward toward the outflow.
- Add suction cups and connect 6 mm airline tubing to the CO₂ input.
- Install a check valve (not included) on the CO₂ line.
- Wet the inside of the hose/tubing and slide onto the glass—never use lubricants.
- To remove tubing, cut it rather than pulling to avoid breakage.
- Mount the diffuser using suction cups, ensuring vertical placement.
- Turn on the filter and confirm water flow without leaks.
- Activate CO₂ and adjust the bubble rate with your bubble counter (not included).
