when you syphon the water do you just use abit of pipe/hosepipe?

i use these bulb syphon things i got on ebay!! squeeze the bulb a few times then the vacuum creates the flow of water. works ok for a while then you have to actually continually pump it as the tank is only a few inches off the ground . same when feeding the water back in. narrow gap for access to the top of the tank too, so using a jug isnt possible.
another reason for keeping any maintenance to that tank to a minimum! i hate it as its really awkward to get to! cant do without it though! i still love my tanks..awkward and all! i guess minimal disturbance should be a plus….not interupting any copulation!!
