Product Description

Considered one of the oldest kinds of reptiles on the planet, turtles have hard shells that come in beautiful colors and patterns. Their beauty, uniqueness, and slow-moving mannerisms make them popular as pets. They can also live for decades and require long-term commitment if you take care of them as pets. These unique hardy creatures require specific care to ensure that they are living happily.

Turtles need well-maintained water in their tanks as one of their living standards. Unlike other pets that need to roam and require ample space, most turtles only need their enclosure and can spend most of their lives in their habitat. Meeting basic requirements to achieve an ideal surrounding for your aquatic pets is essential. You will need a reliable maintenance tool to help you perform regular water changes, take away floating particles, and quickly go to the depths and corners of your tank. Turtle Aquarium Siphon with Small Nozzle by SunGrow can help you do the job without consuming so much of your time and effort.

Installation Steps

Gather the necessary equipment and ensure that all components are clean and free from debris. Our Aquarium Siphon Kit has a total length of 56″, and each part functions together to achieve the ideal surrounding for your shelled pets.

Preparation: Get a clean container that is large enough to hold the water you will be siphoning out of the aquarium. This container will serve as a temporary holding place for the water during the cleaning process.

Attach the siphon tube: Take the siphon tube and attach it to the operation bulb. The tube typically has a wider opening on one end and a narrower end on the other. Connect the wider end to the operation bulb, ensuring a tight seal.Submerge the netted nozzle: Its small nozzle (2″ x 1″) creates suction. Place the netted nozzle into the aquarium, ensuring that it is fully submerged in the water. Position it in an area where you want to start the siphoning process, such as the gravel or debris-filled areas. It draws in water and particles from the tank which travels through a connected tube which has a length of 10″.Prepare the siphon: Squeeze the operation bulb (5″ x 2″) a few times to create a vacuum within the siphon tube. This action will start the siphoning process and draw water up into the tube.Direct the water flow: Once the siphon is primed, you can control the water flow by squeezing and releasing the operation bulb. You will need to attach this squeeze bulb to the flow tube (5.12″ x 0.39″), which is connected to the hose with the primary function of transporting water and particles to the hose (34″) for disposal. Squeezing the bulb will increase the flow, while releasing it will slow it down. Adjust the flow rate based on your needs.Clean the aquarium: Move the netted nozzle around the aquarium, targeting areas with debris. The netted nozzle will trap the debris while allowing the water to flow through. This helps to remove dirt, uneaten food, and other unwanted substances from the tank.

When you have finished cleaning or have removed the desired amount of water, simply stop squeezing the operation bulb. This will halt the siphoning process and allow the water to return to its normal level.

Therefore, our Turtle Aquarium Siphon equipment is convenient and a must-have turtle care tool to achieve the best living conditions for your pets.
