I bought a python but my taps are old and the pressure is too low. Not easy to adapt to the British tap but if you're willing to give it a try it's for sale.

I have a python, takes a lot of work out of WC, You tend to clean the substrate more and parts of plants that have died, great to see the stuff going out as the tube is clear, add your de-chlorinate first, then refill..........

There should be an aerator on the end of the tap that you should be able to unscrew. Have a look at the thread whether it's an internal thread or external thread.

It has to be a mixer tap to get the temperature right for your tank

I use a garden hose to a sink using the old reliable mouth suction method, when I'm done emptying the tank I reverse the procedure by attaching one end of the hose to the faucet filling the tank while I add dechlorinator.
