Re: [GSAS-Member] Fw: Python (WAS polly drums)

[Paul Wallace <pwallace@u.washington.edu>]

I had a python once, As it tuns out the sink (toilet) was lower than the tank 
so I was able to just start a siphon and then turn off the water.  Then I 
figured that I could just start the siphon by moving the air around in the hose 
and stopped using the aspirator all together.  The gravel vac piece was next to 
go as I keep plants and do not vac.  A old bent filter pipe is a good stand in 
and has the benefit of draining ~ 1/3 of the tank.  The shutter was then 
unnecessary and removed.  When I moved the origional hose was too short so I 
bought and extension at home depot.  So I guess the faucet adaptions is all 
that is left of my python (although the plastic part was replaced with metal).  
I built my second python to drain onto the grass out of a run of tube and 
filter pipe...
