Cheap pump for water change

[ggNoRe]

Hey guys I'm looking for a cheap pump to pull water out of the tank. I already have a mixing station to get new water into my display tank. Now I just need something that has a 1/2" connection to connect to my Python and suck 20 gallons out of the tank every time I do a water change. I have an extra pump but realized it only has a connection to push water. I need something that will pull water. Thanks in advance!

Just fyi, the suction side is 3/4" and the discharge side is 1/2".
If u want to attach a suction hose youll need the 3/4" ID tubing.

Only problem with this is I don't want to put the pump in the tank I rather syphon with the python I already have. Also I'm hoping to find something in $15 range as it will only be used for water change purpose.

Use a 3/4 to 1/2" barb for the python then
