This is perfect. It vacuums just the right amount of water ...
I've hard a very hard time finding the "flared" end vacuum. This is perfect. It vacuums just the right amount of water (not too fast, not too slow) without picking up the stones. Works perfect. Thank you. This is not a manufacturer written comment. It works!

Doesn't work for me
This wasn't worth the time that it took to place the order

Vacuum works great, angled head gives a good dig into gravel
Vacuum works great, angled head gives a good dig into gravel. Only downside is the hose is too short, needs at lease another foot or two if your aquarium sits at a normal height for viewing.

Good
Works well. We use it for our 5 gallon, tall tanks with Betta and even though its a tight fit due to the narrowness of my tanks, it works well.

Eh
I have a 3.5 gallon tank - I can see this working well with a big tank but with the smaller one it's really hard to get the sucking action started. Still useful, but frustrating at times.

It works but not the best on the market
It’s very difficult to get the water flowing, works once it does but not the best I’ve used. Good for the money!

It was really hard to start and when I finally got it to go it just sucked up all the gravel Just using the plastic pipe and old fashioned siphoning. Glad it wasn’t to expensive.

I used this in a small fish tank from kmart, at first I couldn't figure out how to use it but then once I did it was easy and useful, I did have to take the head off as it was a little big with it on once I removed it, it worked well.

Why waste a ton of money on a plastic syphon? This product works amazingly well- perfect for smaller fish tanks.
