Review on 🐠 YCTECH Automatic Aquarium Gravel Cleaner: 6 Watt Filter for Cleaning Gravel, Filtration, Pro Sand Washing, Water Changing, Sludge Extraction, and Dirt Suction - Fish Tank Sand Cleaner by Larry Blanco

Revainrating 1 out of 5

This vacuum cleaner creates a super cloudy hell for your fish.

This thing seemed great, it sucked it all up in no time BUT just as I was about to finish the water started flowing out of the top of the filter straight back into the tank. filters, but it moved everything else back into the tank really well, making my tank look so cloudy I couldn't even see the decorations! It was a disaster! I thought it would filter out by morning but it didn't and I woke up to all my poor fish floating on the surface gasping for air! I had to run and go through every special water treatment I could, hoping I could save her by doing a 100% water change, because not a single drop of water "created" thanks to that damn electric vacuum cleaner was ever used could. Thank goodness for products like Seachem Prime and Stability that I was able to turn the tank on right away and put all my poor fish straight into the tank of fresh new water. It's been 3 days since I had to do all this and luckily my fish are still alive! Needless to say I threw away the electric vacuum cleaner. I only bought this thing because I couldn't get my simple siphon to work properly because the pipe was too big for my tank, but I bought a mini siphon and I just need to get it working! Don't waste your time and money, this thing is very messy and almost made me kill my entire Glofish aquarium (and at least two dwarf frogs) with my little ones!

Pros
  • Water change mode: When using the water change mode, install the water pipe on the packaging to change the water easily.
Cons
  • Not sure
