No one i have ever spoken to has had any thing positive to say about the battery operated gravel vac's. I tried one a few years back and it was a waste of money, no power and didnt get the job done.
Try a python, hook it up to the sink and start draining
a python hooks up to a sink and uses water pressure to drain water. it has a gravel vac tube on one end and a sink adapter on the other. no batteries at all
Actually we bought a bigger house as I ended up getting rid of the kitchen table for the 75 gal tank. Now we have 4 large tanks over 55 gals and need the room. The python or knock off is a blessing to me, believe me!
