Quite an expensive item but does the job so quickly.

It effortlessly cleans your aquarium with no fuss, hardly any noise and no water spillage unlike a syphon type cleaner. Takes no time at all to clean the whole tank. I have a very deep tank but with the extension piece it still works well.
The cost is quite prohibitive but this was £10 cheaper than in my local aquarium shop so I feel like I've got a bargain.

Better than nothing and using the gravel cleaner siphon

I bought this to clean debris and gravel whilst not removing water from the tank, between partial water changes. The suction is far less than I expected. Although it picks some bits up, it misses a lot and takes forever to suck into the tube. I find myself wiggling it to try to get the bits to go up, like catching something at a fayre. It is vastly overpriced, but it is better than nothing. I was using a siphon gravel cleaner but find I still have to use it now, as well as the hooverRead full review

Valuable piece of kit

Bought this to replace the self same product which I have been using for about the last ten years. The design is exactly the same as previously and it does an excellent job of cleaning the gravel without removing water at the same time so very useful for routine surface cleaning in between water changes. Well made and fully waterproof, it can be used with the extension on or off. My only comment, which I made ten years ago as well, is that it would be good if both sections of the cleaning tube had the 'toothed' profile. However, this in no way detracts from it functionality and I have no hesitation in recommending it. OK, it's not cheap, but given that I've used the old one for a minimum of once a week for the last ten years, I think it good value for money.Read full review

Eheim aquarium vac

Great item if you regularly clean your tank and don't have sand, but for fine gravel rocks,wood, plant's it's great. Quite big but easy to use and super convenient.

Wonderful piece of kit

I have bought cheaper vacuums that didn’t work. I was very impressed with how simple this was to use and you can see it working. Brilliant piece of kit that does its job. Don’t be fooled into buying cheaper alternatives.Read full review

Great product

Does hat it is supposed to do quite efficiently. No more having to siphon the debris and water out of the aquarium as the water is returned back into the aquarium minus the debris.. Safe to use as it runs off batteries.Read full review

My new magic wand

No more syphoning and bucket of water. It's a great innovation. This has got to be the best piece of kit on the market.

Value for money.

Thought the Eheim rather expensive. But after wasting money on a much cheaper copy which broke on first use I was thrilled to bits when I used the Ehiem tank vacuum cleaner. I use it regularly to keep my aquarium clean without having to half empty my tank . I do water changes when needed , which is nowhere as often as I used to do.Read full review
