Hi,
I'm seriously thinking of going from my 65 gallon to a 100 to 125 gallon. Thing I hate is water changes! Way I do it now, is a I fill up 3-4 of 5 gallon buckets and carry them to my toilet and dump it lol. Ends up being a 25% water change overall including my large sump. Before I dump it I prepare the reservoire of salt water and have that set to go. I fill the reservoire up using 5 gallon drinking water bottles, filled from my RODI, which is in my bathroom, under the sink.
Now, if I could save time in the filling my reservoire somehow that would be great. I was thinking to run the RODI pure line from the bathrrom all way to my living room where the reservoire is. But I'm scared of a flood. The RODI will not connect to my kitchen sink, closest to the living room. I mention that because I have a water on the floor shut off sensor that shuts the feed water off if there is water on the floor (where the RODI is now in the bathroom). **What do you guys do to easily fill up your reservoires?
Also, what do you guys do to more easily drain your tanks down 'the drain'?
I'm sure most that have 100 gallon + tanks are not trucking 5 gallon buckets back and forth! or are you? :-D
Thanks!
