Water Changes - How to make life easier

[BlueTurquoise]

Hello everyone!
By no means is my method perfect, and I know there is plenty of things that I can do to make it faster/better but I thought I'd show everyone how I do it and maybe people can comment and give me more ideas, or tell me what I am doing wrong.

Anyway I think water change is a HUGE part of our hobby and anything that one can do to reduce the amount of time it takes everyday to do our chores, the better.

Also I have a simple setup and only one tank. I understand that the majority of you have more than 1 tank. But heck I thought I'd post some pics in hope that they may benefit someone...
