Hey everyone I'm planning on building a automatic water changer for my discus tank. Im still at the planning stage so anything is on the table.
I currently run a 2 ft cube tank with a 50 litre sump. (230 litre) My current idea is to have an overflow on the sump that goes to a drain and then run a basic drip feeder doing about 20-40 litres a day, using a calculator i found on the net this equates to about 10-20% a day and 45-70% a week. The problem that i will have is cleaning the water before it goes into the tank. I have only ever used prime for the new tank water and never filters for removing chlorine and chloramines. Does anyone have experience with filters cost and brands?
I have seen one that looks good but havnt seen any reviews its called a 12 inch detox chlorinator.
