Does this work well for sand sub straight too?

Answer by ChewyJan 19, 2020
This product is suitable for sand substrate.

does this need to be hooked up to faucet or just a manual pump

Answer by ChewyNov 03, 2020
This pump kit does not need to be attached to anything. Simply place nozzle in the tank and use the operation bulb to siphon the water out the discharge hole into a bucket.

How do you stop it from suctioning

Answer by ChewyJun 01, 2021
To stop flow, lift the netted nozzle end out of the water before the container you are emptying water to is full.

What is the width of the hose? What is the gallons per minute flow rate?

Answer by ChewyJun 01, 2021
The hose measures 1/2 inch in diameter. The flow rate is 3 gallons per minute.

Started with cloudy water and tiny guppys darting everywhere while dirt just sat there. I tried this aquarium siphon and yes it does suck away waste fast without stressing the fish. Gravel stays put, poop and old food are gone, and cleaning feels kinda fun now LOL. My guppy tank looks clear again and I am not soaked anymore, solid tool for sure!!

A very simple concept, but it worked amazingly. I was able to start and stop the flow of water very quickly. The only thing is that some of the grossness of the tank wouldn’t go through the filter as it was too big. But any bigger and I assume that normal gravel would go through. I have river rock so slightly bigger holes would have worked better. But from most, I’m assuming this would be perfect and it’s absolutely doable for me.

This gravel cleaner does suck up a ton of gravel so you have to be careful while using it. It filters the water very quickly. I love this particular one and have purchased eight of them. They are especially beneficial if are concentrated on just removing water.

Hole in tube

I ordered this product twice and both times the tube was bent so much in packaging that there were cracks through it. This obviously prevents the device from working

Perfect length and the hand pump works well! I can't tell you how happy I no longer have to start the conventional tank siphon by sucking on the opposite end of the siphon hose and risk getting dirty tank water in my mouth! Thank you!

I have a 5 gallon tank it works good enough. It is a bit of a learning curve at first to figure out how to efficiently operate. Mine did arrive with a bend in the hose but easy enough to fix and still working. It's good for the price.

I have box different models of this from different companies and this is by far the best siphon I have gotten yet All of them need a little rigging here and there This one all you have to do is take plumbers tape and put it around all the connections and it works great, absolutely love it.
