Battery Operated Gravel Vacs?

[!Gina]

Are these as good as they claim to be? I hate having to use the syphon i have at the moment, I want something quick and easy that elimates the need for you have to actually suck through the tube to activate it, i have a plec and so a regular vac is deffinetly a neccessarity...

can anyone recommend anything? price is no worry and i have a 96L

I bought one a few weeks ago, so far it's great. You can also use it for water change by attaching a tube on the side, lot easier than sucking the syphon tube and no fishy water!lol

Hi, I have had a battery operated gravel vac for a while now and I find it to be very good. I use an ordinary syphon for water changes ( I never suck the tube! yuk). I also have a Pleco so I gravel vac in between water changes to keep the tank nice. I am going to do it today actually. P.S. You don't have to buy the little bags for it unless you want to, you can use cut up tights. Someone told me that tip on here.
