Â
The new RFG Flex series of VCA return nozzles have been constructed from strong and flexible Reef-Safe Thermoplastic Polyurethane, making them adaptable to a wider range of aquariums & modular hose designs. As most algae and biofilms can’t adhere to the rubber-like material, the new RFG nozzles are extremely easy to clean with minimal effort.Â
Â
The Flex Series maintains Vivid Creative Aquatics’ revolutionary RFG design which uses flluid dynamics to randomly vary the intensity and direction of water flow as it exits the nozzle. A set of 5 spiraling fins channel the water in from one direction and then out of the nozzle a different direction. The small amount of interference at the base of the eductor helps create a random change in the intake affecting the path of the flow exiting the nozzle, creating a more natural, randomized flow pattern in the aquarium.Â
