This 16/22 mm silicone hose is for aquarists and terrarium keepers who need a flexible, quiet connection between a filter and its inlet or outlet tubes. It is sold by the metre, so you can match the length to your own setup without joins.
Why it matters
- Made from food-grade silicone that does not affect water parameters, so it can stay in contact with the water in the tank.
- The material does not stiffen over time, even with long-term contact with moisture, so the hose keeps its flexibility.
- Its softness dampens vibration from the filter, which reduces the humming and buzzing that rigid tubing can transmit to the glass.
- The hose stretches onto inlet and outlet tubes without clamps or ties and stays sealed on its own.
Specifications

What it works with
The hose is intended for aquarium filtration and for terrariums, including waterfall installations that run through a submerged circuit. Because it is sold by the metre, it can be cut to suit tanks of different sizes and layouts, and it fits standard 16 and 22 mm filter connections.

Frequently asked questions
The hose is made of soft food-grade silicone, which is neutral for water and does not affect its parameters. It also stays flexible even after long contact with moisture.
The soft silicone dampens vibrations, so the filter runs quietly without buzzing or resonance. Stiff tubes can transmit vibration to the glass, which this hose is designed to reduce.
No, the hose is elastic enough to stretch over inlet and outlet tubes without clamps or clips. It still fits snugly and securely, without leaks.
The hose is 16/22 in size, which is the dimension to check against your filter's tube connections. If your filter uses a different diameter, this hose will not match it.
The hose is sold by the metre and cut from a roll, so each unit is 1 m long. If you order 4 units, you receive 4 metres in one continuous piece with no joints.
