Instructions

Instructions: Place empty bucket within reach and at a level below the aquarium. Attach hose clip to bucket with hose end inserted. For best results keep hose end and bucket as low as possible below the aquarium. Completely submerge intake tube in aquarium. Begin to move intake tube rapidly in an up and down motion. Continue this motion 4-6 times until siphon begins. Water will begin to flow into bucket.

Gravel Cleaning Recommendation: Begin to move the intake tube in an up and down motion, in and out of the gravel. Gravel and debris will be pulled into intake tube. Allow debris to separate from gravel and pull away with water in the hose.

Better shipping preactices needed

by

when shipping the siphon don"t bend and kink up the hoses it makes handling the unit more difficult. Impossible to remove the kinks for better oeration

Siphon

The packaging on this item caused the siphon hose to be creased permanently. They shouldn't ship it this way.

I wouldn't buy this unless you call and request a larger box for shipping.

Straighten Your Hose

by

Placing the hose in a container of very hot water is an easy way to straighten any clear hose you use for an aquarium. In fact, you can shape it any way you want(within reason) if you cool it in the shape you desire. Boiling water works best but be very careful, and don't forget to make it straight before it cools.

Not satisfied with this product…

by

I purchased this Aqueon siphon cleaner and used it once for my 20 gallon high tank ..The long tube always seems to get in the way of cleaning the tank and to squeeze the bulb several times to start the water to siphon threw the hose is difficult and hurts my hand … I wish i could return this product …
