Review: Aqueon mini syphon

psalm18.2
  • #1
I just p/u my first nano/minI syphon from Aqueon. This syphon is designed for min/nano tank water changes.

I love this tool! It's tiny and includes a hang on clamp.

Watch out, this thing has suction. I hung w/ included tank clip. Next thing I know the water is half gone! I never even primed it, it self started.

A great tool for small tank owners. I used on my 5.5G and it was a breeze.
(I have trouble using regular size because tube is too long)

I love my aqueon and I think I would love this one even more for my 5 gallon! It's like the regular one where you hook up to a faucet right?
I haven't seen it yet - but then again, I haven't been inside a pet/fish store for a whole 5 days!

No, it doesn't hook up to faucet, just drains the water.

Aw darn!!!!

I use a regular siphon with the blue ball - works but I still hate the whole bucket thing. My Aqueon changer for my 36 gallon is probably way to strong for my 5 gallon.....

Well look at it this way, 50% water change is only 2.5g. LOL. My shoulder/neck/back ache so hubby carried water tonight.

Ya, too strong for 5g.

He's not allowed in my tanks, but he can carry the water. Haha

That sounds like something I could use! Do you have a full length picture, maybe of the packaging? And what is the full name? Thanks much!
