Works great with gravel cleaners

Good cleaner. I like these tubes a lot more than the ones that need to be moved around to make them work better. Love the little clips they add to the pipes so they can be hung on the side of the tank. In the end, it's worth the money and works great.

Pros
  • Sleek design
Cons
  • Not the best

Works perfectly. A hand pump is used to start the suction.

Excellent purchase. Required for a 3 gallon Beta tank. The hose is a little long and bothered me a bit, but the hand pump to start the suction was on "5+", normal siphons have to be sucked by mouth to start, so no messing with nasty fish water.

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Difficult to say

A bit large for a 5 gallon aquarium

This aquarium hose works well, feels quality and is easy to use. My only complaint is that I wish it had a nozzle that was about the same width as the hose itself. The jets are much wider than the hose and it is difficult to get into the nooks and crannies around the decor in my 5 gallon tank.

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • I'll write back

Stops working after second use

It worked the first few times but now for some reason it doesn't wobble. It worked great the first two times and was very easy to set up. The third time, no matter how many times I download it, nothing happens, I don't know what would have changed since I save it exactly the same as before. Now it's completely pointless and the money down the drain.

Pros
  • Satisfied
Cons
  • Negative is present

Easy cleaning of my aquarium!

I have a 3 gallon tank for my rooster fish, I have added a few plants and algae eaters. However, I try to change about a gallon of water every three weeks and clean between the pebbles and the siphon makes the job a breeze. The small net included in the kit does a good job of catching fish without hurting them as well as catching any loose debris that may have been left behind. Good price recommend

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Unreliable

Weak plastic tube, stopped working after a few uses

I have another similar one (can't remember the brand) that I've been using for over 6 years that works great but this was from Vivosun not so good. The length is a bit short, the plastic tubing is noticeably thinner so it tends to kink when changing water, and the pump/bulb basically stopped working after less than 10 uses. Now I'm just holding the trellis!

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • Packaging is ugly

Well, there are still a few downsides.

I really like this gravel cleaner but it has serious flaws. Pros: + It has a great hand pump to start the suction so I don't have to suck on the hose. + comes with 2 gravel pack lengths so you have options. very thin. And will collapse on its own. - There is no way to shorten the leg extension over our gravel pack (flange connectors are larger than the pipe) - Connection points are weak allowing air to get into the pipe so the siphon effect is lost.

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging
