what's the difference b/w all these ada lily pipes??!!?!

Hi all,

I have a contact who can get me the ada glass lily pipes from asia! now all i have to do is choose the model #.

I found this site:
http://www.a-forest.co.jp/cgi-bin/cg...0062&sort=

and amano's site shows the sizes for the pipes:
http://www.adana.co.jp/product/pna04.html

I can't read japanese, but i know i want 13 mm pipes.
now for those of you who are in the know....

1. for the classic outlet lily pipes, what's the difference between the P-1,P-2,P-4, and P-6? Amano's website says their all 13 mm but they're different prices. Is it the material they're made of or something?

2.same question for the intake pipes: V-0, V-1, and V-4. I also notice for each model number (V-0), there's 2 model types: it that for length or something?

3. i notice on the merchant site, there are 3 pipes that have a circular loop at the top of the pipes, the fold into themselves, also there's no suction cups on them, i think there's 1 intake and 2 outlets.. what are they for?

4. What the hell are those metalic looking ones for? there are 4 of them on the merchant site, 2 intake and 2 outlet (i think).

THanks

Hi

I have a copy of the 2001 catalogue. I can't read jap too but the diagram shows that 'P' is refering to the size of opening 'mouth' (water out). 'V' referring to its intake pipe opening width. And beside all this each of this P-1....or V-1....has different 'w' which is the U-shape width that will have to fit different tank's glass thickness.

The metal type are their newer addition. I still like the glass one!

BTW, I am using the lily pipe which I bought 2nd hand some years back but broke my intake pipe

You have lobang? I wanna get the light hood too, mine is giving way. I am also using 2 ADA tank. Check my www. below

I hope this little info helps. If you would need to know more. What I can do is to fax you that page in my catalogue. let me know.
