Since I bought my 55 G aquarium in July, I have gone through three manual gravel vacuums. I know how to use them and the last one I had worked for a good 7 months and it just stopped working one day. Oh course, I bought a new one and it worked perfectly last week and now it's the same thing...
I've very careful with them and it's just so frustrating. Does anyone else have this problem? It seems like whatever was preventing the water from going backwards isn't working properly because every time I move the siphon up and down in the water, the water doesn't move down the tube.
Is there some trick I'm missing or should I just go buy a different type of cleaning system?
Thanks in advance,
Jayn
