About this part

The stock duck bill on a Spec tank sends the flow one way. This swivel output nozzle gives you the full, smooth pump flow and pivots widely on the stock ball socket, so you can aim the flow where you want it. It is smooth from end to end, with rounded edges for delicate fins.

Compatibility
  • Fits: the Fluval Spec V 5 gallon (19 L) and the Spec III 2.6 gallon (10 L).
  • Does not fit: the Fluval Spec 16 or the Fluval Betta 2.6. No nozzle fits the Betta tanks.
Why it helps
  • The full, smooth pump flow: the nozzle does not restrict it.
  • Pivots widely on the stock ball socket, so you can aim the flow.
  • The stock ball socket stays in place.
  • About 59 mm long.
  • For bettas, our Spec fountain nozzles give a softer flow.
Installation
  1. Pull the stock duck bill off the 11 mm ball socket.
  2. Snap the nozzle onto the socket. No tools needed.
  3. Turn it to aim the flow.
In the box

I was having a very hard time finding a flow diffuser for my nano lily pipes. I found this item and, although I don’t own the tank it’s made for, was able to reach out to the seller to confirm the sizing was what I was looking for. The seller was super responsive and quickly shipped the item. I had to rig a way to connect it to my nano pipe, but it was exactly what I was looking for and helps with the flow in my tank. I may still tweak it a bit or add filter floss inside it to diffuse the flow more, but I’m very happy with it!

My Betta: Vinnie is so happy w his new water flow. It took me a minute to figure out how to pop it on but it’s all good now.

Fit exactly as described and shipped fast.

Exactly as described, had to angle it into the water as my pump is a little strong (designed for salt) but it curbs the flow really well

I like this in theory! Shipping was fast and the product is simple and probably effecient. Unfortunately, the sizing of the attachment was just a little off, so the ball joint could not quite snap into place. It half stayed on but after falling off a few times we had to give up.

Perfect as describe, does not however, work for the internal filter on a UNS 30A tank, as it is much to small ( I did not look at the measurements ;-; )

Item arrived as described, was packaged well, & promptly shipped. When replacing the original nozzle, this may feel loose. I know it did to me. Your experience & results may vary of course. Thankfully it’s holding & the fish are thankful as they are not swimming like their lives depended on it anymore. Highly recommend this for those who feel the original nozzle is doing more harm than good for their fishes, plants, etc.

Excellent product. Looks and functions exactly as designed and described. Love that someone has taken to making high end Fluval tank adjustments to really dial in my nano tank. Very grateful to have found this company!

Much better water flow for your Betta in his Fluval Spec 5 tank with this. It’s physically less stressful for the fish. The factory one is fine for many fish, but too much flow can be harmful for Bettas.
This is well made and shipped quickly.

I have a long-finned Betta buddy and ordered this piece to soften the flow in his tank. It will work perfectly. Thank you to Adam Sutton for excellent customer care and fast delivery service. This shop meets the needs required for my two Fluval tanks.🐳

I can’t say enough good things! Our betta is happy now in our Fluval SPEC 5 gallon. He could not tolerate the flow out of the box, and this attachment is perfect. He swims right under the current. Thank you thank you thank you!!

The filter return looks great and functions just how I’d want it to. My Betta, Captain, is so much happier in my Spec V now. Thank you so much!

Shipped quickly. Took me a minute to understand how to attach, it just requires some pressure but comes off easily with circulating it too much (maybe just an issue with my filter compatibility). I still find the current too hard for my betta, he’s in a wide 5 gallon tank, so I put a filter sponge over it to reduce the current

I love how sturdy this nozzle feels and how I can move it to direct the flow wherever I want!

I had a small issue with this piece when it arrived but the seller quickly replied to my message and addressed the issue promptly. My Betta really appreciated the addition of this piece once I got it installed.

Perfect fit to replace the nozzle provided with the Fluval Spec V. Much more ideal, gentle flow for my Betta tank.
