VireonVac Pro – automatic sludge remover

This gravel vacuum suits hobbyists who need to clean substrate and change water regularly without carrying buckets. It covers aquariums from 20 to 76 cm of water depth, and it can be switched between cleaning and water-transfer use by changing the nozzle and attaching a standard hose.

Why it matters

• Works in two modes, closed circuit and open circuit, which determines whether it recirculates water in the tank or discharges it.
• Cleans the bottom and performs a water change at the same time, so both tasks take one session.
• A micro-mesh screen filters the water and carries debris out of the tank; spare micro-mesh screens are included.
• Materials are resistant enough for use in seawater, and the unit draws 6 W from the mains, so no batteries are required.

What it works with

The unit is designed for home aquariums in the 20 to 76 cm depth range, including saltwater setups. Its 70 cm lift head and 350 l/h flow are sufficient for siphoning waste from the bottom and transferring it to a bucket through a standard hose.
