ADA PRODUCTS -The theory of evolution- #6. LILY PIPE SERIES

Ryuji OgawaRyuji Ogawa
This series of pipes, which can also be considered as foreign objects when viewing a beautiful aquascape, consists of highly transparent glass pipes to create a “transparent presence”. Here is the transition of the Lily Pipe lineup, which has been enhanced with pipe diameters and shapes to match the size of aquarium tanks and filters.
Designing Water Flow
The P Series, which supplies filtered water to an aquarium, embodies a shape that converts the strong water flow generated by the powerful pump of the Super Jet Filter into a moderately reduced water flow for aquatic plant growth. The uniquely shaped outflow opening can create water flow while drawing in water from the water surface, so it can be installed close to the water surface to prevent oil slick. It has been developed to provide outflow of water horizontally or in a loop so that an appropriate water flow can be provided even in small tanks. When the V series was first developed, it was a lineup of small sizes to accommodate framed aquariums and acrylic aquariums, which were the mainstream in the market at the time. Currently, there are four types, but at one time, more than eight types were produced. The V series was redesigned from the characteristic triangular tip to a model with the tip sealed and slits on the inflow section, but the height, number, and spacing of the slits have been updated as necessary to realize the current product. Their beauty as glass products is outstanding, and all of them from the original model to the current model in the lineup are consistent in terms of not losing the aesthetic appeal of the aquarium surroundings. Because of the simplicity and high convenience of the product line, there have been few major developments, and even today they continue to fulfill their role as cutting-edge products.
