The aquarium Siphon I have is the right size for a 10-gallon-tank. The 5-gallon tank I have is thinner and taller than a normal 5-gallon tank. The 10-gallon siphon is too big for me to clean the gravel. Any suggestions on it? I can't seem to find a smaller version of the aquarium siphon either...

| I'm not sure if there is a smaller size. my brother went to the petstore and bought 3 different sizes for me. (>.< And that makes me mad cause I told him I would do it!! But then again, if I have went I would have bought some more cute little fishies, and all my tanks are full!) But there might be some sort of way that you could make one! Although, I don't know what you would use...

Until then, some airline tubing attached to a venturi adaptor works pretty well for small tanks, or you could just stir up the gravel and remove the suspended debris with a cup. (Until you have a more suitable appliance.)

| Hailey already showed this but they do make the mini size gravel cleaners. One of my friends keeps a two gallon tank at his place of work and uses a mini cleaner (don't know the brand) that works very well so I would think a five gallon would be no problem.:)
