Tube 12.7cm Diameter 2.5cm

The Bioscape Tropic Easy Start Gravel Cleaners are designed to make routine aquarium maintenance quick and efficient. Each cleaner features a rigid intake tube for precise substrate cleaning, a flexible siphon hose for smooth water flow, and a secure bucket clip for hands-free operation. Available in a full range of sizes to suit nano tanks through to large aquariums.

How to Use

• Place an empty bucket lower than the aquarium.
• Attach the hose securely to the rigid tube.
• Submerge the rigid tube fully into the aquarium.
• Move the tube up and down rapidly to start the siphon.
• Direct the flow into the bucket and use the bucket clip to hold the hose in place.
• Vacuum gravel by gently pressing the tube into the substrate, letting debris rise and fall back as gravel drops.
• Repeat until 25-30% of the aquarium water has been removed.

Safety & Care

• Always unplug electrical equipment before performing maintenance.
• Never use detergents or household cleaners in your aquarium.
• Ensure siphon action is stopped before removing the tube from the tank.
• Dispose of aquarium water responsibly - do not pour into sinks used for food preparation.

Maintenance Tips

• Replace 25-30% of your aquarium water every 2-4 weeks.
• Use a water conditioner before refilling.
• Regular partial water changes help maintain a healthy, stable environment for your fish and plants.
