    water change equipment

    i use a power head 802 pump on the end of a peice of hose. place it in the tank and pump it into a bucket, dump 5 gals down the sink. stick the hose in the new water and put the pump on reverse. its so easy and fast and since i get filtered ocean water from the scripps pier, i dont have to mix!
