Well im happy to say that a simple garden hose adapter did the trick the the water changer works! I must admit though that i am disapointed in the low flow, and weak suction. I know part of it has to do with my poor water pressure, but it was a headache getting it started, and i felt like the vaccum didnt have a lot of pull because of the length of syphon. It will help with my big tank, but my smaller ones i think ill still use the old 5 gallon bucket.

Run the Python out the door and hook it up to a garden hose for better suction... I had to play with it for a bit so I stopped sucking the gravel out of my tank though! Then I hook it up to my sink to fill the tanks again, and just wait because my water pressure sucks too! Hope that helps :)

Hey thanks thats a good idea ill have to give that a go when it gets a bit warmer, or at least the snow melts! It sure is easier than lugging in the hose to fill the tank lol.
