Pammy Hobbyist Posts: 148 Kudos: 130 Registered: 30-Mar-2004 | Does anybody use this? If so, how well does it work? Any complaints, compliments? I don't want to spend $35 just to be disappointed. So, thanks for your input. Muchly appreciated!!! -Pamela Last edited by HermeLZ at 14-May-2005 19:17 |

illustrae Fish Addict Posts: 820 Kudos: 876 Registered: 04-May-2005 | I recently bought the 50' version, and I found that I had to cut the hose so there was no slack in order to get good enough siphoning to clean the tan effectively, and even then, a traditional gravel vac into a bucket still works better. However, I absolutely love it for filling my tanks so that I'm not carting buckets and spilling water everywhere. Hoping that there must be a word for everything I mean... |

I don't drain my tanks into the sink, though -- I run it out the siphon house door so the water runs into our garden; that may be why I don't have any trouble using it to siphon out the tank. I have Lee's Ultimate Gravel Vac for one tank and a Python for another; am not sure I have a preference. |
