I know this isn't about a mouth full of dirty tank water, even though it's happened to me a bunch of times. It usually happens when you suck on one end and it isn't enough to draw the water out, so you take a big suck and get a mouth full of dirty water. However, the worst thing that has happened to me was getting a mouth full of gas. I was donating our mini-van because it just cost too much to fix but I had filled it up with a full tank of gas. I decided, since gas is so expensive now, that I would siphon the gas out into a can. Well, at least you can see the water going thru the hose but you can't when you siphon a gas tank. I swallowed a mouth full of gas and I felt high for the rest of the day. Really nasty, The Doctor
theres the next big drug... people doing gasoline... you just wait and see, itll happen
 
Great thread as always FM! I'll have to admit I thought I was on the wrong website at first.

LOL!!! You might find me there too!!! JK JK JK JK!!!! ;)


Go on, share your mouth full of tank water experience with us.. it's happend at least once.....
 
As stated, better ways are out there. I have a big Rio pond pump for starting siphons in large tanks. I just drop the pump and hose end into the tank, plug it in for a few seconds to start the flow, then unplug it. Then I pop the hose off the pump and pop on my siphon tube (hose staying submerged the whole time, obviously) and vacuum away.

Not that I haven't encountered my fair share of mouthfuls of tank water.

What Eddie is refering to is...

I was dosing my tank with salt because my catfish had this white spot on him... and I wanted to know if I was putting too much salt so I stuck my tongue in the water just to see how salty it was.... just for a second.. :D

y'all are too busy being perverted to notice that she said she INTENTIONALLY tastes her tank water to test for salinity! :ROFL::screwy::ROFL::screwy:
 
I'm not sure if I mentioned this before or not, but my hose is black and I'm for dam sure not going to go get another 25' just so I can see through it.. I really didn't consider it when I purchased it... retarted me!

No matter what you do, some will always get swallowed...
