I have a new tank that is low to the ground and my siphon doesn't produce good flow for water changes.

It's a bare bottom tank so I like to vacuum up the detritus that accumulates as well.

Does anybody have a recommendation for an electric pump/gravel vac that I could use to vacuum/do water changes?

I have a bathroom maybe 25 feet away - is this a good option at that distance, or does the faucet need to be close?

That should be fine. The magic is in the faucet attachment. I used to run 50' of hose for mine.
