5.0 out of 5 stars The Dark Ages are Gone!, December 29, 2005

By	Tiffi (Greenbrier, TN) - See all my reviews

This is the most helpful product for any tank over 40 gallons, someone with back problems, or just those that are sick and tired of the water mess and buckets.

It's very well manufactured, even comes with a warranty, and it is soooo much easier to make a water change. Just hook it up, turn on your faucet and start syphoning. Also no mess when filling the tank back up.

If the aquarium is located a little higher than the sink you're using it will continue to syphon by itself and you can turn off the faucet. Otherwise the ratio is 5gal tank water syphoned out per gallon out of the faucet, which could be a little wasteful with bigger tanks.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wish I'd Invented It!!, March 9, 2007

By	sonytoao (Silver Spring, MD USA) - See all my reviews

This product is so helpful, it's ingenious. A simple vacuum/pump arrangement lets you suck water out of the aquarium and pump it back in without effort. I have a 29 gallon tank and only a 2 gallon bucket. Water changes used to take 30-40 minutes. Now, I can accomplish the same task in 10-15 minutes depending on the water pressure I use.

In contrast to the typical siphon gravel vac that comes with most aquarium kits, I find that the fish are less startled and less traumatized by the water changes using the Python. It also sucks up more waste than the siphon vac. As a new aquarist, this handy device has made tank maintenance very easy, thus helping me keep my enthusiasm for the hobby high. Looking forward to expanding to a 55g tank in the fall. Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars I don't know what I'd do without it.., August 24, 2006

By	Craig Sanders (NE OK United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is my second NSPC&F after the first one, which lasted around 3 years of weekly use, succumbed to my punishment.

This siphon really does make a huge difference in changing the water in my 75 gallon tank -- what used to take an hour now takes 20-30 minutes. Plus, there's a LOT less mess than hauling buckets of water through the house.
