hi there just wondering what the best thing to use to clean the gravel in my tank
 
Hi,

A gravel cleaner is a great thing keeps the tank clean and healthy, along with the filter of course. There are all kinds of cleaners around, I use a Hagen battery powered cleaner, Lazy I know, but it works great.

Yup, a gravel vac is indispensable. But don't vac more than 1/3 of the gravel when you do a water change. No need to get too close to your plants, either.
 
Depending on the vac, you could remove too much water. I've never seen anyone recommend vacuuming all the gravel at once.

:lol: Made the mistake of going to python.com myself once. It was pretty nasty. :sick:
There's a link to the correct website in my previous post. I love my python, wouldn't keep fish without it.

I'll never be the same again!! :)

I'm so glad that you have recommended the battery powered one...I'm waiting for mine in the post coz the manual one is a pain in the arm (literally!)
 
Don't keep me in suspense. :shifty: Whats at python.com???? Have a small child on my lap, so don't make me check 4 myself!!!
 
How do you know that it is "Adult naughty staff".
 
I am a HUGE fan of the Python Gravel vac, it hooks right up to a sink up to 50 ft away and the water from your sink can create suction or with the turn of a knob, can start filling your tank. It has made my gravel cleaning and water changes so much faster and easier cause you can ditch the bucket and stuff. Here is a link to one of many places that sell them, i chose something other than pythonproducts.com to avoid the whole adult website thing... :) Yikes.
