hygger 215 GPH Small Submersible Aquarium Water Pump Quick Auto Electric Water Change Aquarium Cleaning Pump Fish Tank Pump with 2 Adaptors

At first I was not sure if this would work and I felt hesitant to even put it in water even though its submersible but I actually did manage to find a hose from another product I bought from amazon that was trash for water cleaning and it fit on the fittings that come with this product. The hygger 400 comes with three fittings and I was impressed that this actually worked out, anyway the machine isnt very quiet which is fine but it does a stupendous job!! It not only absorbs the water but it did not disturb my substrate so cleaning was much much easier. I was able to get the entire job done in 2 hours. (Probably could have been sooner but I was fiddling with decor)So in a nut shell:Worth the money? YesSaves time in weekly water changes? YesDisturbs decor and substrate? NoEasy to use? YesComes with a hose? No.Comes with instructions? Yes.Can be safely submerged? Yes.I have two goldfish named Twin Flames and they reside in a 21 gallon tank.

Pumps too fast when filling my aquarium I fill 2, 5 gallon buckets in my sink to fill my 75 gallon aquarium. And keep the faucet running the whole time and it depletes all the water so fast I have to turn it off and refill the buckets before continuing. Not a big issue, I just should have gone down a size.

Product stopped working. submerged in water and connected to power but does not turn on.Update: the company reached out and solved the issue. they are very helpful and willing to work with you.

I have both the 215 GPH and 400 GPH models. My use is for pumping new water into an aquarium. It is also useful if you need to quickly remove water from an aquarium, but I prefer using a siphon vacuum for draining.I recently bought a 10 gallon aquarium and found that the 400 GPH model was too strong and caused the substrate to be disturbed. The smaller 215 GPH model is weaker and works great for the smaller aquarium.I don't have any complaints about the 400 GPH model, but for the 200 GPH model the included 1/2" barb fitting is slightly smaller than 1/2". That causes 1/2" ID tubing to not fit snug, and the hose blows off in use. I see two other reviewers who noted the same issue. I've had no issues with the other fittings, and it seems to be an issue limited to the 1/2" fitting with the 200 GPH model.

The pump worked great the first two times I used it in my 125g tank, very quiet and removed water super fast. The third time I used the pump it stopped working half way through the water change. I purchased the pump 32 days ago, and wouldn't you know.....the return policy is 30 days. Looks like I am back to the siphon for water changes.
