"This works really well."

Love the item and recommend this seller! They have plenty of suction to clean an inch or so off the ground. I used a plastic hose from home depot as this black hose is worthless. Gets under decorations between plants and in corners. Ignore the orang plastic clip that attaches to a bucket. I have a 55 gallon turtle aquarium and this works awesome for it. It is simple, but not without being a very thoughtfully designed product.

"I love this."

I have several divided tanks and I struggle to get the normal syphon in to clean. Just incase there is residual factory lube or something on it. I got this one until my son broke my siphon. It is not good to let the goldfish encounter the cold water directly. Water changing+ vacuuming, you can use it as powerhead to make more water movement. I opted for a gift card and I will have to find another way to make this thing. I have a 55 gallon turtle aquarium and this works awesome for it.

"Easy to use."

Product seems to be well made and should work a long time with reasonable care. Like I said can splice more hose on to reach to the outside or wherever. I put it together in a cinch and was off and running. I just don't know why I didn’t order it sooner. It was quiet and I could sink it into the aquarium and stir up the substrate. It finally broke after 10 years of use so I could justify buying a new one! It does the job I need it to,very effective.

"If so hit helpful."

Simple, lightweight design does exactly what it says it will do. It works great and was fairly inexpensive compared to other similar products. This water pump certainly takes much of those hassle out of water changes. This siphon really sucks, and I'm glad I bought it. The vacuum insn't too loud which is good, and has very good suction. The bucket clamp also doesn't work very well. I also found that the angled attachment clogged way easy.

"So not too durable."

It is simple, but not without being a very thoughtfully designed product. This water pump certainly takes much of those hassle out of water changes. Makes keeping the fish tank alot easier and quicker! Definitely not for the common colored gravel found at pet stores. Gets the turtle poos and I dont have to empty my tank every 2 weeks! It fills buckets faster than my old siphon. It is not good to let the goldfish encounter the cold water directly.

"Or soft hose."

It works great and was fairly inexpensive compared to other similar products. But all in all, I'm relieved and happy! I put the water from the from yard into a 58 qt bin first. You won't go wrong with this product. And kind of shook it and tested it by plugging it in. I wanted another one but amazon just wants me to return it. All it takes is a couple of pumps and the water starts flowing.

SLSON Final Thoughts

"Ouch, lol."

When I used it to get the water out, I found out it has pump function. Definitely like the bulb for starting suction easily. Definitely not for the common colored gravel found at pet stores. It eliminates spilled and dripping water on my carpet and floors. Most of the time I just took out half tank then top off with fresh water. But It always ended up messy with water on the floor. I wish i had bought this the first time.

Two Little Fishies 481549 First Impressions

"Vs hard plastic part."

Most of the time I just took out half tank then top off with fresh water. I pushed the tip down into the substrate and pulled the ditritus out right away. I could see it working for 10 gallons, especially with a little experience. It quit working after the second use! Once you get the tank water flowing out of the tubing. Perhaps if it gets a piece of sand in the pump then it freezes or seizes. Almost a must have for anyone with an aquarium.

"Would purchase again."

Almost a must have for anyone with an aquarium. I washed mine with mild dish soap and the small was gone. I put it together in a cinch and was off and running. The costomer service for this company is wonderful. Gets under decorations between plants and in corners. It was quiet and I could sink it into the aquarium and stir up the substrate. I found that it's difficult to use.

It is simple, but not without being a very thoughtfully designed product. I also found that the angled attachment clogged way easy. Simple, lightweight design does exactly what it says it will do. 5 gallons- it works amazingly well. I had to put the goldfish into the other 5-gallon tank, and then do the water change. The trigger can be pulled on and off and it shakes the gravel for you. Aside from that, i am very happy with the product and would encourage you to get it!

I gotta say tho that it's really powerful. You can see the debris coming up the tube like an elevator- hahah. That will show you which parts go were.

"It was such a pain."

I even separated the tubes and used it to clean my small 5 gallon! Makes keeping the fish tank alot easier and quicker! Instead, I would suck from the end of the tube until water came out. I have gone through two others and they lasted about a month. I really love this gravel cleaner for water changing and gravel cleaning. I haven't tried all the function tools this kit provided. I used a plastic hose from home depot as this black hose is worthless.

"Works perfectly."

It does the same work, only better and in half the time. You can't get a better product for such a decent price! I LOVE IT SO MUCH I'm getting another for the fish tank at my Mom's house. I think this vacuum is a smart design by someone. 5 gallons- it works amazingly well. It did however do a better job than the gravel vac i was using before. This way I could empty into a 5 gallon bucket for mini water changes.

Hard for small hands like mine to grasp and use easily. Most of the time I just took out half tank then top off with fresh water. I got this one until my son broke my siphon.

I had to shake the substrate out of the bottom inch of the tube only twice! Once put together, I tried it immediately- it was AWESOME! I liked the idea of this product when I saw it, and decided to take a chance. If used in a deeper tanks, the shower effect will all be underwater. This water pump certainly takes much of those hassle out of water changes. Instead, I would suck from the end of the tube until water came out. With this product I was able to do it by myself quickly and easily!
