Review on πŸ’§ Effortless Water Change Made Simple with Marina Easy Clean Water Changer by Wendy Washington

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I couldn't live without it

I bought a 72 gallon aquarium a few months ago and have been doing weekly water changes using the bucket method. This changer is amazing and very easy to use. Now I can do a 15-20 percent water change in less than 10 minutes, including hooking up the unit to the kitchen faucet. going to hardware stores to find one that works (this process took longer than it should as the store clerks weren't that experienced. yeah, me neither. lol). I ended up having to buy 2 separate attachments for a total of about $9. The first attachment I needed was the part that would fit my faucet (dad) and the other end was enlarged to accept a 3/4" hose (faucet to hose adapter). The second mount needed was a 3/4" dual hose swivel adapter (3/4" FH x 3/4" FH) which I found easily once I knew what to look for (make sure you buy the one that has joints from).. I hooked up these 2 adapters along with a water changer and installed a suction hose in my tank, turned on the faucet and like magic water poured through the plastic hose and down the drain.You can control the speed by regulating the flow of water in the faucet When you are finished emptying the aquarium, simply lift the suction hose out of the water (while the tap water is still flowing) and the pressure in the hose will continue to drain the water from the hose into the sink OR Simply leave the suction hose in place, adjust the temperature of the water leaving the faucet to your aquarium temperature, pull up the lower water changer and... nd turn it (where the water exits) and fresh water will flow back into your aquarium. I chose this brand because I liked the protection of the filter so my fish don't suck on the hose. The other adapters in this kit seem to be more durable but then again I can't use them so no point in rating them. Overall this is a great product and I am very happy with it.
