Well I just learned a very valuable lesson in water siphoning.... I siphoned out a full 5 gal of water and stopped I shook the end of the siphon that was in the tank off and laid it on a paper towel on my floor... I then went to get my 5 gal bucket with the pump in it so I could put the water gently back in my tank.... Well when I got back, I took one step into my room and splat splat.... I have pergo flooring ( that fake wood flooring) and the water ran back down the siphon and onto the floor... And boy oh boy did it really travel... It took me an hr to clean it up... It went under my desk... Under my fish stand... U set my other fish stand... Under my tv stand ... EVERYWHERE... So Lesson learned, I will never leave the siphon in a full bucket of water AGAIN...
