Rio 2500 Powerhead Pump

This is a high-performance pump with a maximum flow rate of 40L/min.
Includes [⑨ Duckbill Nozzle] and [Warranty Card].
Not included.

- Cases where the duckbill nozzle is not needed:
  - When used as a water pump for an overflow aquarium
    → If the purpose is to lift water from the sump (lower filtration tank) to the main tank, a pipe hose will be directly connected, so it is not necessary.
  - When directly connected to a undergravel filter or external filter
    → The nozzle is not used as it connects to pipes or hoses.
  - When attaching a separately sold deflector (rotating outlet adapter), etc.
    → It is not necessary as water flow is created by other parts.

- Cases where the duckbill nozzle is recommended:
  - When submerged directly in the aquarium for the sole purpose of creating water flow.
    → Without the nozzle, a strong, straight water flow will come out of the round hole.
    → Attaching the duckbill nozzle allows you to change the flow to a flat, gentle, and dispersed stream.
  - When you want to prevent strong, pinpoint water flow from hitting a specific spot, which could erode sand or displace fish.

If your planned setup involves connecting hoses or pipes, then not having the nozzle is perfectly fine.
