These simple hose clips from Lee's are indispensable! Once you start using them, you'll have no idea how you survived without them for so long. They clip onto the bucket or container you are using for your water change, and then your gravel vacuum hose fits into the clip, preventing you from spilling dirty aquarium water on your floor/clothes/etc. A must-have aquarium cleaning tool, you can also use it with other applications to secure tubing or piping to your aquarium or equipment for total control.
