I wanted something like the aqueon water changer but
Didn't feel like spending 50$ on one so I made my own.

Hose adapter![ImageUploadedByAquarium Advice1407978067.655301.jpg ImageUploadedByAquarium Advice1407978067.655301.jpg](https://www.aquariumadvice.com/data/attachments/208/208925-6f27f37de2f3d7278569ab97f3e3dc91.jpg)

And your siphon

How to build
It's really simple. Just insert your hose adapter into the siphons hosing. That's the only real assembly required.
How to use
Screw the siphon onto the hose

Run your hose down (has to be down this won't work if the sink you are using is above the tank unfortunately) to the sink. Siphon out your water to the desired level. Then to fill remove the aerator and screw on the facet-hose adapter. Then screw on the hose. If the facet leaks rap a cloth around it so it won't spray everywhere. I built this for a total of 24$. Hope you like this, im sure it's been done before but I wanted to share my project with everyone.
