Hi everyone,
I'm looking for a battery-operated siphon for my 10 gallon fish tank. My current siphon is a "manual", where you have to pump up and down to create friction to pump the water out. I find this to be very ineffective for actually getting debris out as it usually just creates a dust cloud.
So, I'm wondering, does anyone have some suggestions for a battery-operated aquarium siphon? My local pet store said that using them on small tanks could be dangerous, but it seems like anything would be better than my current system.
PS: Any aquarium hose recommendations?
Thanks!
Josh
