so i'm planning on buying one of those wheeled heavy duty trash cans from home depot. filling it with water, and sticking a water pump that is rated around 500-700 gph or so, connected to a 1 inch or whatever size tubing it fits and long enough so it'll reach my 120gallon aquarium from my laundry room, about 20 feet. then i'll have tubing about 8ft long, displacing water from my 120 to my yard outside.
this is so i can, somewhat have an easier method doing water changes, cause currently, i'm filling up eight five gallon buckets every water change, letting it sit for two days, and taking out water with a plastic hose to outside, and pouring the eight buckets in and refilling them every single week.
or can someone give me a better idea if they think this idea won't work.
i'm just worried that my pump won't be capable of pumping water twenty feet up and down to my 120.
