Faucet/spigot syphon

[Wayne78]

Hi people!
Does anyone know where I can buy a tap faucet/spigot syphon with a gravel cleaner???
Im in the uk and I've checked in my lfs but no one has one not unless they order me one! But I want to see it before I buy it

Just one question do u need to have the tap water running all the time while removing water from the tank?

Yes it acts like a vacuum and siphons water out of the tank.

That's what I thought!
I was just wondering once its started u could turn off the tap

I have the same one and you can turn it off after it's started, but it has much less suction when the faucets off. Not enough to clean the gravel in my experience.
