Introduction
The Hygger Aquarium Manual Gravel Cleaner is a siphon tool designed for water changes, sand washing, and dirt suction in aquariums. It makes it easier to clean debris hidden within the substrate or floating in the water.
Please read this user manual carefully before use and follow the instructions strictly.
Note: The gravel cleaner requires a 19.7-inch vertical drop from the water inlet to the water outlet. The minimum water level in the tank should be 6 inches before starting the water change.
1. PRODUCT FEATURES

With the hose, the S-size product can be extended from 15.6 inches to 25.4 inches, making it suitable for fish tanks up to 24 inches deep.

3. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
- Connect the suction ball to the outlet hose and the portable handle. The other interface of the portable handle is connected to the hard tube.
- Connect the inlet kits and the gravel cleaning tube.
- Place the inlet tube into the aquarium and the outlet tube into the bucket.
- Clamp the outlet tube to the bucket to prevent the outlet hose from falling off.
- Press the suction ball several times until the outlet tube is full of water, then loosen the suction ball; the water will automatically flow out. (Tip: If the outlet tube is not full of water, do not insert the gravel cleaning tube into the substrate unless water is flowing out from it.)
- Insert the gravel cleaning tube into the substrate. It will suck the sand or gravel, allowing you to lift it up and down to remove dirt and clean the water.
Tips:
- Use the flow control valve to slow down the water flow. Clamp the flow control valve to the outlet hose when in use.
- The vacuum cleaner can also help remove dirt if your tank is not equipped with a substrate. You just need to insert the cleaner into the inlet tube.
- Hard tubes can be extended with the joint to adapt to different tank depths.
4. ATTENTIONS
- Please read this user manual carefully before using and follow it strictly.
- Please keep it away from children.
- The water outlet must be 19.7 inches lower than the water inlet when you use this gravel cleaner.
- Please check for air leakage when connecting the tube.

- Do not use the gravel cleaner in flammable and corrosive liquid.
