Thanks I always wondered about what you showed

[@IansFishRoom]

Glad I was able to answer a question for you.

[@sokinecola9361]

Thanks a lot! Helpful🎉

[@IansFishRoom]

So glad to hear that! Did you decide on one?

[@Prince.Prince1999]

The efficiency win for python may be from the bigger hose circumference allowing higher volume of water to be removed.

[@IansFishRoom]

I agree but also think it seals just a little better.

[@kennethcabral4659]

Why would there be a difference? water pressure through a hose isn't going to change. the only difference is going to be on design and quality you get what you pay for I've been using the python for over 25 years and I've never had a problem

[@IansFishRoom]

+Kenneth Cabral if your referring to the efficiency test I'm guessing the difference comes down to the diameter of the hose and possibly the amount of air the system allows in.

[@DeFreeseAquariums]

Definitely a cheaper choice between the two. I did a review on the hygger and some of the differences and how to cut your water usage in half. Good video.

[@IansFishRoom]

Thanks for watching! I'll check out your video too.

[@jaskauuur]

So can you use this to suck out everything at the bottom of the tank or isit strictly a water changer

[@IansFishRoom]

It's not meant to remove the substrate but you can use it to remove the detritus (fish poop) from the bottom of the tank.

[@jaskauuur]

@IansFishRoom thankyou :) thanks for letting me know

[@pilotavery]

I call them Hygga

[@IansFishRoom]

Ok...

[@pilotavery]

@@IansFishRoom 😂😂😂 I like the python the most because of the reliability. The hygger one keeps breaking every few months.

[@kjeaquatics]

I would stick with Python - An American Company .

[@IansFishRoom]

I agree. I'd rather pay for the better quality.
