    And it can also mean "beneficial bacteria"... so it depends on the context too

    I will go bottom less soon. I bought a plactic 55 gal barrel completely sealed with 2 holes. Can someone upload a picture on a pump set up. The tank it near a window. I want to do the water changes and just open the window and have it drain outside and then reverse it and have the water pumped back in from the plastic barrel. Need help with pump and fittings . I have a 90 gallon tank. So 55 gal changes. Don't see any reason for more. Sorry buy floppy fish doesn't seem like a good idea... They talk about stress. Thanks

    I use two separate pumps for filling and draining .
    For draining I use 500 gph submersible aquarium power head that sits permanently drained in my tank , and for filling the tank with water from the aging barrel I use well motor pump located right next to my aging barrel / tank .
    This is the well pump I use :
