This brush is sized for standard aquarium filter hose and tubing up to 1.6 cm (5\/8 in) internal diameter — the size used on most canister filter intake and spray bar hoses. Wider-bore hose, such as some sump plumbing, will need a larger brush or a dedicated pipe cleaning kit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSuitable for, and not suitable for\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for clearing algae, mulm and biofilm from the inside of canister filter hose, hang-on-back intake tubing and airline-adjacent fittings.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNot a substitute for cleaning the filter media itself — this brush only reaches the hose and tubing, not the canister body.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNot suitable for hose narrower than the brush head, or for rigid PVC pipe with tight internal bends.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCare and maintenance\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eRinse the bristle head under running water immediately after use to stop trapped mulm drying onto the bristles.
