Nice! I've been thinking about doing this very same thing, but haven't been able to find the right thread pvc that would attach to a garden hoses' thread.......at least, at the local HD and Lowes by me.

Check in the sprinkler sections if your big box carries components for in-ground sprinklers. You'll be looking for 3/4 FGHT (Female Garden Hose Thread) or MGHT (Male).

If not check for a sprinkler supply company in your area.

Thanks! I got all of the parts at my local Menards... I think it is a must have, no more holding hoses and worrying about them falling out of the tank

Dang that's a great rig, I'm so sick of all the different wrecks during tank refills.

I saw a LFS had a set up like that so I too made one. I kind of am thinking to take it up a notch and add some kind of float shut off....
