I have a couple of small tanks (5 gal & 7 gal) that my current gravel cleaner is not really practical for as it has a 1 5/8" opening and is hard maneuver around plants. Can anyone recommend a siphon gravel cleaner with a small (less than 1 inch) opening to clean a small tank? I know lots of people have small tanks and no doubt somebody has a better product for that than I am using.

Walmart sells siphons for small tanks, the vaccume tube is about 3/4inch and the clear line is maybe 3/8?? ...there about 3 bucks, but there perfect for 10 gallons and smaller

I picked up the Walmart mini gravel vacuum several weeks ago and am really pleased with its performance. It is just right for my 5 and 7 planted gallon tanks. Thanks for the suggestion jeffro426.
