When to choose it

Choose this siphon for a longer path to a nearby bucket when a shorter hose would pull tight. The listing identifies a squeeze bulb for priming and a removable screen in the gravel tube. Check the screen at the start of the session before placing the intake near loose material.

The seven-foot measurement is the hose run. Set the bucket below the aquarium and allow slack at the rim so you can move the intake without pulling the drain end out of place. Compare a faucet-connected system if the intended receiver is across the room.
