"Has many accessories."

You won't go wrong with this product. The bucket clamp also doesn't work very well. I was able to get behind most of my plants no problem when cleaning the glass. It makes my water changes in my tanks much easier and convinient. I am very pleased with this product! This is good for taking out the bull and then finishing with credit card. It was on low so I put it on high and found that the unit would be ok.

"So worth the money."

It got clogged a few times and i had to take it to the sink and run water through it. 5 hours even adding water back to tanks. Try getting floating pieces of poop into a small slit of an opening. I happily and heartily recommend this product. I cleaned it in the sink then cleaned my other 20 long tank. Cleans everything, drains a tank in no time at all. The bucket clamp also doesn't work very well.

"I love this product!"

The trigger can be pulled on and off and it shakes the gravel for you. I did not receive the glass scraper with mine, but don't think I'd use it anyways. We have a snapping turtle and I was having to clean his tank 2-3 times a month. I bought this cleaner for my husband and we got this in 15 days before. The issue is that the sponge also blocks any debris from entering. It will take a few runs to get most of the algae off. I had to make a few passes over the built up stuff.

"So very disappointed!"

The sock included is ok, I use a fine filter media bag because it's easier to clean. It got clogged a few times and i had to take it to the sink and run water through it. Very impressed with their responsiveness as they stand behind their product. Scrubs away even the toughest alge. I'd recommend this, but it just takes a little practice. This is my second review but since this is a great product I'll do it again. Hopefully my replacement works and I can change my review.

"Just look at the pics."

This hose would be over kill for 20 gals or less but I have 40 gal tanks. I gotta say tho that it's really powerful. That said, the results were excellent. The scrapper will float if detached from the magnet. The cleaner is very easy to install, and it is multifunction. It kept coming off and made a mess on the floor. I also used this LinkinsLegacy cleaner in my kitchen sink.

"I still like it."

I LOVE IT SO MUCH I'm getting another for the fish tank at my Mom's house. This is built tough, so that time may be a while. Makes cleaning my daughter's turtle tank much, much easier. No snails or shrimp would stand a chance. I cleaned it in the sink then cleaned my other 20 long tank. I bought the XL version for my 75gallon long. Made water changes so much faster and did not have to accidentally swallow water.

I have to drag it across the tank and it fights me. No options to purchase them, they look useful. I have several divided tanks and I struggle to get the normal syphon in to clean. Python overkill for that size but it has it's place. One swipe each way and the glass was, literally sparkling clean. Shrimp are sensitive and need small water changes.

"Has many accessories."

Changing water and cleaning the tank is a joy now. It kept coming off and made a mess on the floor. It's like comparing sweeping your carpets to actually vacuuming them. Had a minor issue which their service department addressed immediately. No options to purchase them, they look useful. I gotta say, this vacuum water cleaner gets the job done. I can reach my hand in, but it seems to stress her out.

I saw this cleaner on another forum and figured I would give it a shot. Python is good too but this is fast, easy and light. Connections leak over time so I have to put some silicon joint while I join them. I used the plastic one when I tried it today. The scrubber is identicle to the material used in velcro. Cleans everything, drains a tank in no time at all. This is my second review but since this is a great product I'll do it again.
