Re: Pump for python
Try a hardware store or auto-parts store. You can get fuel siphons with a
built-in pump with flapper valves that will do exactly what you describe.
Try to get the clear ones -- they are made of polyethelene -- which should
be safe for tank water. Tube sizes are usually 3/8"-1/2".
