I have two adult red-eared sliders. It's difficult getting a lot of those bulky items out of the gravel, but this item does the job well. It's expensive, and it takes a while to set up this attachment (about 10-15min). The good thing is that it really works. I didn't have trouble vacuuming the larger turds, shell pieces, even smaller matter, without all of that spinning inside the tube nonsense. The best way I would describe this device is a complete spa day for the bottom of the tank (As it should be those bags are pricey), but I think it's worth it once you see the results. I recommend that if you buy this you get your money's worth by completely cleaning the tank. It'll look really good. I think it has worked better for the bulky parts (turtle owners will understand) than regular gravel cleaners, and this is due to the ease of picking up various sizes matter with a strong suction, and without getting rocks or unwanted matter vacuumed. The gravel cleaner end was made brilliantly so that anything free floating will be vacuumed. The bag collects the gunk so you don't have to worry about it recycling through the filter system. I would say this has been comparable to the python system that goes directly on the sink faucet. I changed my sink set-up so I had to find a replacement. This one has become my new system for clean up. I'll probably just hold on to my regular gravel cleaner as a emergency spare. RECOMMENDATIONS: 1. Everytime you set-up use it completely until the tank is fully clean. 2. When you are done, do not just pull the hose out, all the shell pieces will fall back in. Think like any other hose and tilt the hose to where matter won't spill out when taking it out of the water.

I really wanted to like this. I've been using an old fashioned gravel vac for years and it's annoying to use, and you can't do it without draining water. This seemed like the answer. It used my filter to do the vaccuming, how cool! This thing...it works, but there are serious issues. 1) vacuum suction works best if it's in a straight line. 2) if you have your filter in the middle of your under-stand, this things hosing will have to bend and you lose force. If the filter is on the right or left side, you can't really vacuum that side of the tank without great difficulty. 3) the suction cups that hold the filter pod to the tank are designed the exact opposite of the way they should be. I mean the way the tabs on the rubber suction cups lock into place, the whole mechanism *will* fall off your tank, potentially leading to a catastrophic spill... 4) it's a good idea but it's complexity coupled with a terrible design make this much harder and riskier to use than a normal gravel vacuum. I regret buying this. Two stars since when it works, the suction is quite good, and because it's a cool idea... however it's such a hassle to make work it's not even close to worth the price they ask.

Everything works as you would think, however the water that is sucked in does not go thru the filter media and so it comes out to the output and into the fishtank, the problem with that is that you are then sucking all the shit in the bottom and putting it out to the tank thru the output. It does come with a filter sock but is tiny in comparison to the size of tank this filter is made for, hence you end ud changing that sock every 2 min which defeats the whole purpose. This should either have a huge sock before the water goes into the filter (loving that idea), or have the water pass the filter media before going into the tank.

Using this with an existing FLUVAL FX6 canister pump. My only regret is that I didn't buy this when I bought the FX6 (a year ago). This vacuum works incredibly well and has the advantage of returning the cleaned water back to the canister and then aquarium versus disposing. For my saltwater reef tank I needed to clean the tank but couldn't dispose of the water as it is being medicated for algea and cannot have a water change for 25 days. This product was the perfect solution. Extremely well built and designed as you would expect from a HAGEN/FLUVAL product.

This item is nice. You need to make sure to have all connected correctly before and while using for sure. The extensions are thin so be careful when using in tank. Hoses need to be heated up when first received in hot water so they can be a little more flexible. It is awkward at first to use but once you get the hang of switching the dial on your filter and priming you will be fine. It cleans like a champ. The best part for me is that you can take the hose off of the cleaning bar and use to pump water back into the tank from your holding tanks. Clean everything well and let air dry and this item will last a long time. The collection bag must be cleaned and dried well for sure. Keep track of your suction cups. Mine was an open box order so I only had 1 suction cup out of 4 and replacements have been hard to find so far. All in all if you use an FX canister filter then you probably have a big tank and this item will be a BIG help!

The instructions aren't so clear on how to get suction and don't tell me if the filter has to be powered on or off, I've had it a LONG time and used it a few times. It either went way to fast and sucked lots of air into the system that scared the heck out of my fish when I turned it back on or took a bit to get suction if at all. If there was an order of operations telling you when to POWER it ON or OFF and open which valve that would be most helpful. No, I have not called and yes, I've read the instructions and watched the video a few times, still ran into issues. The hoses are a tad too thick for their purpose and could be a little longer to reach everywhere in my 55 gallon tank with being able to keep the device suctioned to side of tank and parallel the entire time

It's OK... I have a python and easy access to the outside for both of my tanks (the 65-gallon through the bedroom window) when I do tank maintenance so I just run the hose outside when I clean. I have a 125-gallon downstairs, as well, and when I clean I always do a water change anyway. I usually change about 30-40% of the water weekly which makes for a nice clear, clean tank. It's just more work for me than using the Python.
