But you still don't need it...if you have a lidNo the hook is mostly for filling the tank

Yes. I was just saying that it's mostly used for filling because they were saying to use it for emptying a tank... Never thought of it as an attachment to do that.But you still don't need it...if you have a lid
I did it without a lid yesterdayBut you still don't need it...if you have a lid
How big of a mess did you make?I did it without a lid yesterday
didnt spill a drop ;-)How big of a mess did you make?
Well done!didnt spill a drop ;-)
Yes I did. I have a pretty accurate way: My fingers lol. I used a thermometer for a while then I pretty much memorized how 78 degrees feels Whats your method?Well done!
Did you match your tap temp and tank temp as closely as possible? I have a method I use that may help, but you'll need a digital pocket thermometer, 10-$12 from Amazon...
I used to use the "feel" method too, until I killed 4 perfectly healthy fish, and wounded several others, by using water that was too warm.Yes I did. I have a pretty accurate way: My fingers lol. I used a thermometer for a while then I pretty much memorized how 78 degrees feels Whats your method?
If you have sensitive fish, use a thermometer. The sense of temperature is easily fooled by relative temps rather than absolute. To demonstrate this take three containers of water with hot, cold, and room temperature water. Put your hand or a fingers in the hot and cold containers for a minute. Remove them and place them in the room temperature container and note the difference in temp perceived by each hand.Yes I did. I have a pretty accurate way: My fingers lol.

I put the fill tube into the sink, where the other hose end is attached. Run the hot/cold water while holding the thermometer in the stream of the Python, adjusting the temps until the tap matches the tank; close the shutoff valve, carry the fill tube to my tank(s), then fill....when the tanks are full, close the shut-off again, carry back to the sink, SHUT OFF THE WATER (pressure builds in the hose while the valve is closed), then slowly open the valve to allow the pressurized water to escape...reverse the green venturi pump, and use faucet flow to empty the hose for storage.
I guess ill be using a thermometer from now on. Wouldnt want to needlessly kill a fish.If you have sensitive fish, use a thermometer.

"I'm willing to keep it but just wanted to let you know."So i got a response.
Here was my message:
Hello!
I just received my python water changer and its a 50 foot instead of 25ft. Its not a problem, I'm willing to keep it but just wanted to let you know.
Here's their response:
Hello . We are happy to have you contact us. Thank you so much, Good night
I guess i can keep it?
