Garvel Vaccum

So I'm sure we all know that gravel vacuum's sometimes suck well don't suck very well. I just thought I would share a tip to make a better one that I am sure some of you may have done. First off take a 1 liter water bottle cut the bottom off it second get a hold piece of garden hose make sure you have a good size piece to reach from your tank to whatever you are putting water into, now slide it into the end of your bottle slightly now use  some duct tape and securely tape them in place by wrapping many times. Now your all ready to use. I have found that this works so much better than anything you can buy.
