Submersible pump and hose is definitely the way to go. Screw that sucking on fish water with your mouth lolThis is what I'm thinking might be a good way to go. Just thinking about logistics and how to make it work from tank to barrels and barrels to the areas that need water.
Come on now, don’t make me feel stupidYou know if it has the larger section on the end to vac with you can just dip it into the tank fill and lift to make the water run down the hose then put it back in the tank and bam! No sucking required lol
It works for me. As long as the tank end is high enough it should work.I’ll give that a try and if it works I’ll be happy that I no longer will need to risk getting fish and turtle water in my mouth. Lol
Yep that's the "mouthless" way to do it.Place the syphon end upside down in the tank and let it become full of water then,once the syphon is full of water hold it up above the tank to let the water drain out of it and right before all of the water has drained out of the syphon end lower it back in the tank and submerge.The hose should be draining by then.Come on now, don’t make me feel stupid
I’ll give that a try and if it works I’ll be happy that I no longer will need to risk getting fish and turtle water in my mouth. Lol
Haha...I can imagine how that must have grossed you out!BIG-G & K krichardson I think most of my tanks will work for doing that then. The water level in my turtle tanks might be too low, but I’ll try it out anyway just to see. I nearly vomited the last time I got turtle water in my mouth. I felt sick all day. I was positive that I was going to get salmonella poisoning. Haha.
