Gravel cleaning...

[Ochana25]

Hey everyone so when I'm doing my weekly tank maintaince I have that python cleaner that hooks up to the tap and while cleaning the gravel I feel it's not picking out all the crop from the gravel like is it possible that it's to long for example I need around 20 feet but the cleaners is 60 feet would cutting it down help better with the cleaning

I doubt it. If the hose is turned on all the way then it should cause enough suction to suck up all the debris in the tank.

I never hook to faucet

If you can, siphon into, bucket, garden, etc

When I had my water changer, I never drained it with the changer because flow sucked. I always bought a separate one and drained the crud into a huge trash can
