Auto Water Change

[cheekycharly]

Does anyone here have an Auto Water change setup?

I do. I have a drip system on all 20 of my tanks. Hot and cold water is mixed with a shower valve and comes out at 84F. All my tanks are drilled for the overflow. I am on well water so there is no cost involved for the water. If you are on Municipal water the cost of water has to be tanken into account.

Moon -- so the water is not aged?

Joe is on well water and I don't think aging is necessary with drip system.

That is what I gathered. Curious as to why that is the case? No ph flux? Obviously no chlorine or chemicals.

Yep. Just water as nature intended. Straight from the ground into my tanks via a gas heater.

water is not changing all at once just a slow drip that the tank will off gas b4 any swings would come into play.wish i could run a setup like this but i have expensive water.

I am planning on getting one setup for my 265G tank. But my tank is not drilled and I don't want to drill the tank. So, overflow is my biggest concern right now.

I just started this method this week. I was doing 5 gal buckets lol
PVC hung on the back of my tanks with a shut off valve connected to one inch hoses all of them go into a 50 gal drum with a pump in it which is connected to another 20 ft one inch hose plug it in all the water is then drained into the tub. Not totally automatic but very easy. Filling I use a 1 inch hose connected to a pump in another aging barrel.

I have a complete storage and auto change system for my current three aquariums. I have chosen however at this time to use a gravel cleaner when removing water so I am present during the changes.
