Knight, Biotope got Siphon also. Cheap Cheap.
Actually for planted tank, you just have to nimp the soft part of the tube to control the water flow. Yes, the sand/soil will be in a rotating cycle, so what you need to do is to gentlely use your hand to fan off those sand from the leaves. If the plant have shallow roots, you might not want to siphon too deep.
I was taught by Stormy to use siphon too, but I figured the flow control way. Too much nimbling also will cause damage to the siphon. If you buy the hard plastic tubes one, you might find nimbling a difficult task to do.
