I will be buying the 10 arm honeycomb tomorrow I am still gonna need a bowl would my local head shop carry one
you would need a 14mm female bowl for that one which is a pretty specialized piece, I know none of the LHS around my would have it but you could get a female to female adapter and bowl separate though

So this HC handheld bubbler arrived today. Here's some pics of it: http://imgur.com/a/kQlVx

There's a very noticeable weld you can almost see in the last pic, that I can feel when I run my fingernails over it. I have to test around water levels and draw speed, have gotten a mouthful of water a few times. This thing stacks pretty nice, though. Overall I'm pretty impressed with it, I just wanted to try a honeycomb perc before I spent money on a bigger piece, for $35 this is a nice little test piece.
 
I got my piece at maxqualityglass com, Super Thick and super cheap. I got my order in 2 days! they had shipped priority mail at no extra charge. The fritted disc stacks like crazy and the cyclone perc keeps any water from reaching the neck. I couldnt be happier with my purchase!! I had no idea there was stuff out there this nice this cheap.

At $15 with free shipping it was a bargain. At the new price of $29 it's a lot less so; with it's too-high perk and low build quality, it's a lot less compelling (though still okay value, I guess).

These guys seem to like to list things cheap, then jack up the price on anything that sells (look at the honeycomb bubbler), so we can expect more of this with the other pipes if they come back too (plus their newer scientific listings seem to be climbing in price). According to stats they only ever sold 14 of the tree bubb over the last six months but apparently that's enough demand to pretty-much double the price from US$15 to US$29.

And if they don't sell at $29 they will lower the price. That's how AliEx always works. I've purchased a bunch of stuff from AliEx and it's always the same story.

That's the 8 arm tree. I've got that one. Not bad.

Interesting. The page text still says "5-arm" from last time, though they've updated the title to say "6-arm" this time. However, if you count them, there's eight arms, like you say. I didn't even notice last time (missed the high-res pics when you scroll down) and just assumed it was 5-arm.

Still, at this rate, after two more price rises, the page (or at least the title) will be accurate, since they're making their way up to eight slowly, it seems. :p

Last week I got my "8arms bubbler" from Aliex and I am very pleased aswell. It doesn't look perfect and the arms aren't centered good but it does work well! I'm just sad I couldn't take the deal on the showerhead one (jealous on you jambandphan ;) ) cause it is defenitely too much diffusion for my preference. Anyway for that price I got a nice bubbler to "switch to" or to take in travel!

Also today I accenditaly dropped the removable mouthpiece on the desk and it's still in one piece!

Hey, anyone pickup the New Perc Bubbler from Aliex? What kinda perc is it? I can't really tell in the pics.
I like the detachable mouth piece, and that it appears to have its perc welded to the side of the can. EDIT: perc is not supported.

The 5 arm Tree Bubbler looks nice as well. But no perc 'support', and I prefer a shorter, fatter can.

Anyone know what size the joints are? Assuming 14 by the package size...but, there is no actual indication.

Oh, and a question on this Triple Honeycomb Bubbler; how is that perc suppose to work? Do you really have to fill that with water all the way to that 3rd perc? That seems like a lot of water/drag?
