Python

I can't image life without my Python! I have enough hose that I can hook into the kitchen sink and do water changes on all of the aquariums, even the ones upstairs. I also take my python to the school and hook into the janitor's sink. I haven't had to mop up a spill since Mark bought it for me almost a year ago.
**Disclaimer**The actual Python is quite expensive. You can make your own with a waterbed drain/fill kit and hose, but be careful about what kind of hose you use.

I also use a python on occassion. My biggest problem has also been finding the various connectors to fit on my sink. They are very useful otherwise.

I've got the brass connector that fits most places, but I know what you mean. I never knew there were so many different types of faucet!

Good call on the brass fitting. I broke a plastic one on the first use. I couldn't find the waterbed kit, so I bought the Python valve, and did my own hoses.

Peace.

Yeah, the plastic fitting they include might fit more faucets, but it sure isn't made of very good plastic. We screwed one up trying to take it off, too. Sheesh. I wouldn't think it would have cost them that much to make it a little more sturdy.

actually mom you have made a BIG spill since you got the python. all over my bedroom i might add. and then you ran away and i had to clean it up. but yeah, the python really does make water changes easier.

That was your fault. Hey, who let McKelvie on this forum anyway?
