Plumbing suggestions for storage tank

[loyalrogue]

Ok, so I finally got my water storage tank.
It has two bulkheads already built-in.
A 1 1/2" female threaded bulkhead near the top just above the 300gal mark, and a 2" female threaded bulkhead at the bottom.
Similar to this one.

What is the best option for plumbing this thing?
I'd like to attach a 75' hose to it to make filling the aquariums easier.
Also, I'll be filling it with NSW, so any suggestions on any additional equipment?
UV sterilizer, recirc pump, etc.?

All suggestions welcome.

valve at bottom-and viola. gravity will do the rest.

Haha, I wish.
I would have to mount it on the roof for gravity to do the work.

The tank sits outside and when compared to the aquariums inside it's lower so gravity is my enemy, not my friend on this one.
I'm definitely going to need a pump of some kind.

Jjohn even if its lower the sheer mass of water when the tank is full will work in your favor.

Perhaps a little platform will do.

One item to consider is where you are planning to place it. Temperature would be the item to consider...

You would want to try to keep it as cool as possible so that when you do perform water changes, the temperature is pretty close to the temperture of the aquarium water...

Good Luck And Have Fun!!!;
