Aqua Medic Pipette 35 (Includes 2 dosing tips)
Precise enough to feed one coral without clouding the whole tank. The Aqua Medic Pipette 35 is a 35 cm plastic feeding and dosing pipette with two trimmable dosing tips, built for aiming food or liquid supplements at a single coral, fish or feeding spot rather than dispersing it across the whole tank.
Key features
- 35 cm length – reaches into deeper tanks and sumps without wetting your hand.
- Two trimmable dosing tips included – cut a tip shorter to open up the opening for thicker particles or more viscous liquids, or leave it long and fine for precise single-polyp feeding.
- Plastic barrel – reef-safe and easy to rinse clean between uses.
- Doubles as a spot-dosing tool – as useful for aiming a supplement or medication at one animal as it is for feeding.
Specifications
| Spec | Detail |
|---|---|
| Manufacturer part number | 39040 |
| Length | 35 cm |
| Bore (inner / outer) | Approx. 5 mm / 7 mm |
| Material | Plastic |
| Included | 2 dosing tips (trimmable) |
Which one do I need?
| Model | Length | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Pipette 35 | 35 cm | Shallower tanks, closer feeding spots, and anywhere a shorter tool is easier to control |
| Pipette 60 | 60 cm | Deep tanks, tall sumps, and reaching fish or coral at the back of a large display |
Both use the same barrel diameter and the same trimmable dosing tips – the only difference is reach.
Suitable for, and not suitable for
- Suitable for target-feeding corals and fish, and for spot-dosing supplements or medication in freshwater and marine tanks.
- Not suitable as a bulk dosing tool for whole-tank supplements – for that, use a dosing pump or a measuring cup and the tank's normal dosing routine.
Care and maintenance
Rinse thoroughly with fresh water after every use, especially after dosing medication, so no residue carries over into the next feed. The tips can be trimmed with scissors to change the opening size – start with a small trim and test before cutting further.
Goes well with
- Aqua Medic Pipette 60 – for reaching deeper spots the 35 cm pipette can't.
- Coral and fish foods that benefit from targeted feeding rather than broadcast feeding.

Common questions
Can I trim the tips myself?
Yes – both included tips can be shortened with scissors to widen the opening for thicker food particles or more viscous liquids.
Is 35 cm long enough for a deep sump?
For most sumps and shallower display tanks, yes. If you regularly need to reach the far side of a tall or deep tank, the 60 cm Pipette 60 gives more reach.
Can I use it to dose medication at one fish instead of the whole tank?
Yes – that's one of its two main uses alongside target-feeding, though always follow the medication's own label instructions for whole-tank versus spot dosing.
Is it reef-safe?
Yes, the plastic barrel and tips are safe for use in reef tanks.
