Aquarium maintenance made easy

This little vacuum cleaner makes aquarium maintenance so much easier! connect the hose and do a partial water change. No need for a primer! I haven't tried a full water change yet. To be honest, I'm not sure if he has such an opportunity. That's the only thing I could find. It's powerful, quiet, a good length for large tanks and easy to clean. A solid buy in my opinion!

Pros
  • Heavy-duty surface
Cons
  • Weight

No suction power and clogging

Unfortunately, the suction power of this gravel vacuum is not enough at all. It doesn't even pick up flakes from the bottom of the tank. The particles are easily picked up, but simply hang in the plastic gravel tray. It was absolutely useless and was a waste of money, time and effort. When I first used it I thought I was doing something wrong but I'm not. I personally think that's bad design. The fan motor module is on the same path as the suction drop. Clogged 20 seconds after use.

Pros
  • Lots of positive emotions
Cons
  • Very expensive

Get them while they last! This is a great product.

. It's 2 1/2 feet deep so I needed something to clear the bottom. I read reviews and watched videos. It is quiet and does not disturb the fish. they just studied, stood aside and watched. No hectic swimming and running around. The floor was cleaned and the filtered water returned to the tank. It's easy to use, but I advise you to watch 3 videos. Although it shows that it comes with an instruction book, it doesn't. I would buy this again.

Pros
  • . High marks for support and durability from testers.
Cons
  • . Low repairability.

Not very helpful. for aquarium vacuum

This aquarium vacuum was delivered without an instruction manual. There were tiny diagrams of each step to put it together. The assembly wasn't difficult. I put it in the aquarium and started sucking. Suddenly I was splashed with water pouring out of the hole in the handle! Obviously there is a small damper that needs to be lowered to allow water to circulate in the machine. I did not know it. I also think I'm missing some parts. I don't know how to use it. I will keep trying. I had big…

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • Difficult to say

Cannot clean a dirty aquarium

Unfortunately, this vacuum cleaner is not suitable for cleaning dirty aquariums. This will likely help keep the reservoir clean, but it starts out with good suction for about a minute, picks up dirt, and then gets too clogged to keep picking up. I then have to run to the bathroom to clean the filter element, which takes about five minutes for every minute the tank is cleaned. It's badly designed. If instead of a filter built into the side of the device, a filter bag would hang on it, in which…

Pros
  • Hands-free operation
Cons
  • Update available

This vacuum creates a super cloudy hell for your fish

This thing seemed great, it sucked it all up in no time BUT once I was done the water started coming out the top of the filter and back into the Tank. Of course it kept all the big particles in the filter but it deposited everything else back into the tank just really well which is why it made my aquarium so cloudy I couldn't even see the decoration! 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…

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Unreliable

Cons

Gets the job done

I am writing a review on this product in case anyone has the same problems. The suction power is low so it can be a little slow at times, but it gets the job done. The instructions are a little confusing, so note that there are two lids on the filter canister. One is just for clearing gravel and the other is used with a water pickup hose. The rest is pretty intuitive. When I first used it, it worked great. The second time I used it, the suction didn't work. I checked the motor fan area, there…

Pros
  • The power is 6 watts, the powerful water pump motor can deliver a maximum flow of 92 gallons per hour. The suction power is sufficient for quick water changes, vacuuming up leftover food and fish excrement from the aquarium. Save time and reduce fatigue.
Cons
  • Doubtful purchase for the elderly
