Bucketless water change for small tanks- 10-40Gal

[noob4lyfe]

Hey everyone,

My current system:

1. Siphon into a bucket.
2. Carry to bathroom
3. Repeat 1-2 twice

Then.
4. Tap water from bathroom into bucket
5. Carry to Fish tank
6. Repeat 4-5 twice.

I really find doing all this every 2 weeks.

I've been around youtube and i've seen some pretty elaborate bucketless systems - Ipod apps, rolling barrels, etc.

Does anyone have a setup for smaller tanks?

If would help a great deal!

Appreciate it

If you don't want to use buckets, get a system like the old python water change system. Here's one available from Drs Fosters and Smith

since I started using household water hoses for bigger tanks, now I just drag the hose over to the smaller ones too. even a 20G.
I siphon dirty water from all tanks directly outside through windows & doors.
