I want to speed up water changes. Thought about using an external pump on my python hose. Anyone done that with any luck?
 
For a while I used a long hose with pumps connected to both ends, each only used as-needed.
 
The siphon takes 10 minutes for 20 gallons. I realize 10 is not much. But if I could do it in 3, why not.
 
Yup I use a mag24 hooked up to a python to feed water from my storage barrels to my mixing station.
 
It's not a suction pump, so it's either inside the tank, or externally plumbed into the bottom of the tank somehow.
