Re: Greg's version of Lily Pipe outflow

actioncia · 07-01-2006, 03:30 PM

I've had greg's outflow pipe for couple of months now and I've just ordered ADA's Outflow to give them a try. Thus, I will not have any use for Greg's Lily. I am asking $35.00 shipped. PM if you are interest. Regards, JC.

I must be out of the loop.

What is Greg's version?

Almost the same like ADA except half the cost. Were you not aware of the fact Greg's was one of the alternative route for people who are interest in Lily Pipes? I thought everybody knew.

Who is Greg? Can you post a photo?

Yeah, the lady I get them from raised the prices on me, and I didn't really get that many orders, so I kind of stopped selling them. This is what the outflow looks like,

Martin Schellinck · 07-04-2006, 02:43 AM

Greg, do you plan on selling more outflows in the future?

IUnknown · 07-04-2006, 09:03 PM

If I get enough people interested. I place orders of 10 kits each time. With the increase in price, the kits would run $80.

fresh_lynny · 07-04-2006, 09:10 PM

I have a set, but the problem is, my tank is 2 feet tall, so the intake is 16 inches from the bottom, so I am not getting enough filtration real low, despite my extra pump for movement.

From this thread the ADA intakes don't get any longer either. I made a pair that was longer, but it didn't work out because it was very easy to snap in half (it would slap against the tank and break). My tank is only 16" high, but I always assumed that it wouldn't be a problem with larger tanks because most of the cleaning occurs when you change your water and stir things up. The rest of the time the detritus just falls to the bottom. The other complaint I had was that people that keep there canister filters running during there water change would have problems loosing there siphon. I turn off my filter during the water change, so don't have any problems.

those look great, I'll definately be in for a kit once christmas time starts to roll around.

bavarian3 · 07-06-2006, 10:01 AM

I highly recommend these. Great quality at a fraction of the cost vs ADA pipes! I could never go back to regular spraybars and intakes. Use these along with an inline heater for the cleanest tank look imo.
