Removing all water

Yup, shop vac gets the job done for me.

typically I use a towel... but I also got one of these from my sister for christmas... cost is about $20, and it snaps onto a 5 gallon bucket (which we all own...) to convert it into a shop vac. Great product if you only need a wet vac occasionally for small jobs and don't want to store one all the time.

This is the reason I have large bath sponges just for fish purposes

Hello; I think having aquarium only things like sponges, buckets and such is a good idea. I can keep track of the buckets but not always the sponges.

I have more "tank towels" than bath towels now, and the tank towels are all the nice ones! :/

I thought it was pretty cool when I first saw it, but I wasn't sure how often I would use it... so I told my sister to get it from me for Christmas. My family doesn't always understand the gifts I ask for... it is convient if you have a sump that doesn't lend itself to syphoning or easy draining of all chambers
