Keep your fishy friends swimming free and clear with TeraPump’s Aquarium Gravel & Sand Cleaner! This manually-operated pump features an all-in-one design so both experts and novices can easily clean their tank’s substrate without disturbing its fishy inhabitants. A shorter nozzle is included to make draining your tank a breeze, while a longer nozzle is perfect for cleaning gravel in between regular washes. This gravel and sand cleaner even replaces the water you siphon out, making it twice as easy to clean your tank. Plus, with TeraPumps unique water flow control mechanism, you can easily select the exact amount of water you’d like to drain. This is also great for use with aquatic turtles and aquatic amphibians.

Don't waste your time. BARELY suctions and won't get up any of your food. If you have an hour to frain 1 gallon go ahead an purchase. If you have the strongest hands to pump all the water you want out of the tank since it won't take over and suction by itself.. go ahead and buy. Or save yourself the encredible trouble.
Not as easy to use as they make it look and I'm certain that there is more being done than just squeezing the bulb thing.
The first one I ordered was defective and didn't work. I was sent a replacement that works (sometimes) but it takes a lot of effort and countless pumps before the water starts siphoning itself out. Sometimes the flap inside the pump gets stuck incorrectly and the pump stops working. I usually just shake it until I get it to work. I used to try to use this for an hour then stop in frustration. I wouldn't recommend wasting time and energy on this product.
