this gravel cleaner is a brilliant product, it does exactly what it says. its very easy to use, submersible & also cleans the gravel whilst cleaning the bottom of the tank. when you have finished you just slide the filter out, wash it under the tap & slide it back into the gravel cleaner. its a really great product to have.

Having read all the reviews I knew there was criticism of the build which proved to be true. As a gravel cleaner it is powerful and better than cheaper battery powered models, yet it needs improvement. Given its power the cartridge fills and blocks quickly, with water spraying out of the top (quite a surprise). An alternative by-pass should be possible. Fluval also need to develop a means of catching the larger crap that gets dragged up - I used a net to hoist it out when the cleaner is turned off - but there should be a built in remedy. The LED seems pretty pointless and I found it impossible to distinguish between the 2 speed settiungs. At this price a spare cartridge and some liners would also have been useful. l doubt I will be buying any Fluval liners as they seem quite overpriced compared with making my own filter pads. No doubt I will get good use from the Fluval Provac but when you buy a Ferrari you do expect to get a spare wheel and brakes that work. Read full review

After many years of struggling with battery operated cleaners,(none of which had enough suction to clean the gravel,)it was wonderful to be able to purchase this plug-in electric cleaner and get such splendid results. It is easy to assemble and runs quietly. Can`t praise it highly enough.

My gravel was very clogged after over-feeding some fry. I used this vac and it was brilliant. My only slight concern is that I have had to order some more filter pads after thoroughly cleaning my 70 litre tank just once, and at around £8 for four, I would have thought the manufacturer would have included a spare. I hope the next ones don't clog as quickly. Hopefully now the bulk is out of the way it shouldn't be a problem. it isn't recommended for small gravel use so if you have fine gravel in your tank I don't think it will do the trick for you.

It makes cleaning the gravel much more easier as it has an led light and you can easily see particles being sucked up to the filter. It is also very easy to do a water change. To Understand how useful the FLUVAL PROVAC you can watch a video on YOUTUBE.
