The Aquario Neo Reliever is a modular flow reduction attachment engineered specifically for the Aquario Neo Flow PETG Lily Pipe series. Designed to snap directly onto the end of your outflow pipe, the Neo Reliever gently diffuses water pressure and redirects output currents evenly across your display. It is the best aquarium flow reducer attachment for betta fish, dwarf shrimp, nano community tanks, and delicate planted aquascapes that require gentle water movement.
Requires an active Aquario Neo Flow lily pipe system for mounting.
| Size Option | Lily Pipe Compatibility | Hose Inner / Outer Diameter |
|---|---|---|
| Medium (13mm) | 13mm Aquario Neo Flow Outflow Pipe | 12/16 mm (1/2 in) |
| Large (17mm) | 17mm Aquario Neo Flow Outflow Pipe | 16/22 mm (5/8 in) |
1. How do I adjust the flow intensity with the Aquario Neo Reliever?
You can adjust flow by changing the depth of the Reliever on the outflow pipe, rotating the unit to direct currents toward tank walls, or removing one or both side wings to alter diffusion strength.
2. Can I use the Aquario Neo Reliever and the Aquario Neo Skimmer together?
Yes! The Neo Reliever is specifically designed to mount on the outflow line simultaneously with the Aquario Neo Skimmer, allowing you to skim surface biofilm and reduce outflow velocity at the same time.
3. Will using the Reliever damage my canister filter pump?
No, the Reliever diffuses water across a wider exit surface area rather than choking the line, allowing your canister filter to maintain full turnover without back-pressure stress on the pump motor.

"I bought the reliever valve specifically for my snails. They love climbing up my previous lily pipe (yes, up the outlet) and it only took 20 minutes minutes for them to start crowding it. They haven't managed to get into it which is awesome, but they have been hanging out in increasing numbers since setup. If they're happy, I'm not going to complain!"
"Works as its intended to."
"Amazing product. Works very well. Very easy to use and set up!"
"Neat design to soften the flow. Perfect if you need this type of relief on your water output."
"Great product"
"Works Perfectly. Calm water movement"
"Love the versatility of this. Can turn to the side, leave one cap on against tank side and tilt towards surface for a more focused flow for some surface agitation. Plenty of ways to tweak to meet a different need."
"This was just what I needed to reduce the flow of my UNS Delta 30 for by betta. Worked as advertised and my betta is much happier!"
"Great water flow control and perfect fix."
"Works a lot better than I was expecting it to! Using it on a Delta 60 for a 20 long with pygmy cory’s and pygmy rasboras and they don’t mind it at all. My floating plants are also hardly stirred which is a nice benefit."
