Yeh thats what I do atm, im a plumber so learnt all about siphonage at college and to be fair being a plumber im thinking there must be an easier way of draining water and filling again.

Well the only easiest way I could think of is using your pump ?? To take water out and put it back in but then you would have to
Move your pump around alot

Tried that but nothing relevant came up, in fact it completely missed out changes and returned every post that had the word water in it.
 
theres a million threads on this...one like 2 days ago. Search

Really not going to find some hidden technique on doing it
Get some buckets and do it one at a time, get a drain so you can pour water out quickly, get a python, etc.

I mean how often do the same, basic, things need to be discussed.

There are some things that are just obvious...you went to school for it too so

toddo how do u not do water changes??!!


Well, why are u doing water changes...to reduce Nitrates? With a scrubber, NItrates and Ammonia stay at zero.

I add water occasionally and only cause of evaporation. Been 9 mos now and still the same parameters. Fresh tank btw.
