Water Change pumps

[fish 4 life]

Hey guys i was just wondering if any of you use an electric pump to speed up your water changes. My siphon is super slow and i was thinking about buying an electric pump to speed things up. Any ideas or recommendations?

Thanks!!

Harbor freight is the cheapest.

what kind do you recommend for a 65G?

Agree, Harbor Freight. Just get one that you can make fit into the siphon hose. Which is best? Doesn't matter really, more money buys a more powerful pump (faster water change) is all. I personally use an old powerhead I stuck in the hose of my Python but whatever works.

i just use a cheap submersible that came with my tank. I'll do a gravel vac when needed and use the pump when its just a regular water change
