Pythons

I've heard only good things about them but have only ever seen them on US websites.

Any help appreciated.

Merry Xmas

They are pretty easy to make. Just need one T junction, 1 tap connector and one valve. As long as the tap/drain is lower then the tank it works great.

Dont make the mistake I made though and buy the cheap black hose from B&Q. It works but is ridged so a PITA to roll up and store.
If you get stuck let me know and I can always take some pics of mine for you.

they are available here.

however in the 10+ shops that are nearish i have only ever see 1 shop have them.


i find it easier using 2 bits of pipe

one out thenwindow/back door attached to the vacum to drain the tank, and one attached to the tap to refill after.

Aquatics Online has them, if you don't fancy the DIY business.
