Hi Ivan,
Your set up sound very similar to what I did until recently. I now age/mix/heat my water in 35 gal Brutes and pump it into my tanks using a PondMaster magnetic submersible pump. I went to the local shop and bought some pvc hose fittings for it and bought some drinking water hoses. It's made life so much easier! Do you age your water in containers like that?

nope I have a 45 gal tank right next to the aquariums. BUT I'm now changing so much water that the 45 is too small and until it turned cold I'd just use the garden hose from outside through the window. With winter coming on it is not warm enough and I bought a 50' new hose to go from the sink (which don't sit well with the wife) but that is besides the point. I getting too old to lug 5gal buckets of water through the house as much as I do. I'm looking at getting new tanks next year I'll switch in a 75 for the 45. I need bigger tanks anyway right I'm looking at something that will fit my 75 stands maybe a 90 or 110 i think.
