I use a small wet/dry vac. Works great.

I use my maxi jet pump..I stirr the water up so that the detritus is floating then I just suck all the water out...I also siphon hard to get to places but its a pita to get the siphon going

Bucket head seems much easier

+1 for bucket head. I read about it on this forum, got one and it's great! I did try the eheim vacuum and it didn't work well.
