PYTHON No Spill Water Changer, 7.5 m ( Brass Adaptor Not included )

Product Information

For now, I am still using my latest replacement Aqueon faucet pump, but I’m working on fabricating a faucet pump from metal parts that I hope will last much longer. When properly used, each and every water changer we tested was more than capable of siphoning water from our test aquarium and filling it up with fresh water from the faucet – without leaks or mess. Drain off into water butt through under stairs toilet window then pass fitting back through window to new mixer to fill. I even went to Graham's plumbers merchants in Enfield (along with three others) and no one has the part to fit my kitchen tap.

Some taps can be made compatible using the supplied universal adaptor, or alternatively with widely available garden hose / universal tap adaptors, however this is not guaranteed. Aquarium to sink clean, this eliminates buckets which eliminates mess and its not electric, it operates on normal water pressure.

I would attach gravel cleaner to the end of the hose while the water was being pumped out of tank and do a quick substrate clean and picking up debris and dead leaves etc, I put the other end of hose into a bucket in the bath and clamp hose onto bucket to stop hose from falling out of bucket and let the water run from tank into the bucket, the flow from my 600lph pump is not overpowering as anything accidentally sucked into the hose like shrimps or small fish would stay in the bucket and while water would overflow from bucket to bath. I have the band clamps snugged down as tightly as possible and it’ll be interesting to see if I get any leakage at the ends or not.
