Duke Posted February 18, 2006 Report Share Posted February 18, 2006 I have noticed that when I vacuum my tank using 8mm airline, siphon method I can create quite a good suction which suck the little bugger up, neally. The whole body is sucked up the tube but the foot hold is too good. I think I need MORE suction and goodbye aipstasia. I thought about a pump but cavitation will be an issuie, so I am looking at using compressed air / venture as a method of creating some serious suction on a small tube. I have found a suitable air water gun which will do to start the trials and will purchase it next week. The idea is to put the tube (6-10mm dia) close to the vermin and pull the trigger and create super suction instantaneously and suck the little bugger out of the rock. comments and ideas please Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
