That was a worry when I got mine earlier this week, but it comes in handy when you empty a tank a move it then refill it. They do sell like accessories for it and maybe one is an adapter that will work for you.

Went to get Python at LFP and they didnt have the Python.
they had some other brand ( $69 for 50ft ).
i didnt get because i want the Python
i was curious what you guys spent and how many feet ??
i did read that theres an adapter kit for the python but i didnt see at LFP.

Woo! Got it to work! The adaptor had some washers (?) in them, that kept me from connecting the adaptor to the faucet. Now that I've figured it out though, it's working like a charm! :D

I paid $40 with taxes for the 25ft. I originally wanted a 50ft, but I measured yesterday, and I didn't need more than 25, so I got that.

Instructions? Pft, I don't need no stinking instructions.

They weren't that helpful... except when I spent about 15 minutes trying to figure out how to siphon out of the tank.

That python takes FOREVER to get the water out though! In about 1 hour, it siphoned out roughly 1/3 of the water, I was trying to do a 50% w/c since I went 3 weeks without one, trying to test what my tank would react like with only a w/c every three weeks while I'm away. Then again, I can't say my test was as effective, because I'm dosing twice as many ferts as what I'll leave premixed for the parental.
