I've used this exact system for over a year now.  I went to the hardware
store and bought some plastic tubing (although you could go even cheaper
and just use a regular garden hose) and voila! - I had a python water
changer for a fraction of the price.

I actually learned about this on rec.aquaria about a year and a half ago.
