How do you change your water!?
Same like yours, water from the tap, put it in my bucket, put dechlorinator then run a water pump to mix the water
Ur amazon links are broken
This was amazing thank you so much!! I'm 7 months into a high risk pregnancy but choose to never compromise my passion, but absolutely needed a better way to do water changes other than buckets and siphons (my fish rooms down some basement stairs and in a back room nearly 50' away from the nearest sink lol).
how did the pregnancy turn out?
your youtube banner is a kid, hope t hat means everything came out well in the end :)
I hurt my back pouring out the water out of the bucket when I mop, and this will help so much. Thank you!
Same!!
I use one for add water to all my tanks, I don’t have auto drain or fill, so a day before I do my water change, I fill a 55 gallon plastic barrel, treat the water and it has a heater in it, after I siphon the water out of the tanks, I fill all the tanks with the treated water in the barrel, and a pump and hose like yours.
I ran a this same set up just with a larger pump before i had my auto water change system. Works great! I like that you down sized it as this is a great budget option for a lot of people.
If I was using it for my 75 gallon, I'd buy a bigger pump. I would possibly even buy bigger for a 10 gallon, but this is perfect for the tiny tanks haha
Can you send a link on Amazon for the water pump. That one is expired
I was just about to make the same comment !
Good stuff man! Fish keeping is all about making the maintenance as easy and convenient as possible, especially when you start getting into multiple tanks! 👌
First off love your videos.
I just recently started doing this with my 75g. I got a 400gph pump to drain to my utility sink. To reverse, I put a bucket in the utility sink with the pump in it and refill the tank from that. It has been a life saver. Before that I was only doing like 10 to 15g water changes at a time with the traditional bucket carrying method. Now, I can change the water for my flowerhorns mich easier and more frequently. All for about $30.
That's awesome!
thats a great idea!!!
My dad found one of those small ones from goodwil, wasn't sure if it would work for this but I am sooo gonna try this next time. I have a 20 gal and do about 5 gal water changes. drain with a syphon but filling and add all the minerals and conditioner and then use an old milk jug from the 5 gal bucket into the tank until I can left the bucket
I use my canister filter to do that, just take the output tube out and put it in a bucket and vice versa for refilling 👌🏼
"We're not all tazawa tanks".. I'm dead 😆😆
It's the truth, I'm a 115 pound skinny dude 😂😂😂
@@DilettanteCulture I've got.....15 lbs on you 😆
Hi. Your link to your pump is unavailable
Thanks I just bought a 40 gallon I'll need to do a water change because I'm cycling the tank now
Yeah buddy that's a good idea. Im still doing buckets and have 21 tanks 🤣🤣😂😂 great work bud.💪👍🤜🤛
Sounds like you need yourself a pond pump! Haha
Big help for me having a pump for my 13gal i have spinal stenosis so back pain so i can only lift ro barrel for short time.
I find that the water has to want to change, you can't force it.
A joke.😊🦈
My water never wants to be changed! Haha
Hilarious!
with this pump do you think i can use it for a diy plant watering system
I use a Rio 2100 series pump that pumps 725gph on my 210 with a 40 gallon sump, but only after I do my sand vacuum with a Python. I try not to waste too much water, and I can get it done soooo much quicker. Great job with this video 👍.
This may be a silly question, but how do you add your anti-chlorine chemical?
You should do an updated version of this video, your links are expired.
Great idea, FYI your Amazon link for the pump is no longer working
I actually have one of the larger ones of these that I use generally. I'm considering ordering a smaller one or a in line pump to do my smaller tanks since the "Mini" Siphons they sell really can't suck anything up
It was a good choice for me!
Hell yeah BO!
I use a small pump with a ball valve attached just so I can use it for different dimension tanks and not disturb
I have this, how do you clean the gravel now?
Goated video
I siphon out the water using a pipe and then attach the pipe to the tap to fill it again. Simple. I am however working on a project to automate this process. I will share when I'm done with it.
Really helpful. Great presentation too, not too long. Is the python too strong for a 10 gallon tank?
I use my python on my 10s.
Bay Area Aquatics o wow thanks so much for responding! Haha. I appreciate this. There are ppl on Amazon that review it that say it’s too strong for a planted 10G but I’m so glad I asked here and you answered! I’m going python 🐍
@@TriniDaChief I logged into my account at the right time haha. all of my 10 gallons are planted and I use the python on them every week soooooo 🤷
Bay Area Aquatics lucky me lol. you’re the man!, thanks so much bro 🙏🏼
Do you have to cover the intake to prevent fish from getting sucked to the pump?
I have not, it's tiny. My tanks don't have fry. If I had fry, I'd probably wrap a layer of panty hose over it.
I siphon by mouth and I hate it bc if I break the flow I have to put my mouth on the hose that is now covered in swamp water
What size you think I would need for a 55 gallon aquarium. The sink is about 50ft from the tank
My indoor turtle ponds (stock tanks) are ground level. Would the python work for that? Or does the python only work if tanks are raised? Would your method work for 100 gallon ground level? Thanks!
I started doing reverse curls with dumb bells, my forearms are much stronger now. But nice tip, I could probably do something like that when I’m very very very old.
Curls? Sounds like work. 😂
Nice tip thanks for sharing 💪🏾👍🏾✌🏾
Great idea.
Can doing too many water changes mess up the cycle ?
How many lph you are using?
Can I know what is the diameter of the hose to connect to the pump? Is it a standard size tubing for most pumps? Thanks!
Different pumps have different diameter requirements an aquaspeed a 2400 needs a 1/2 pvc
Link to pump does t work
Water pump. Where did u buy it?
Question if water is horrible from the tap (has ammonia and nitrites before use water conditioner and quick start takes a while for it go away) and have keep water in buckets do serious need get muscles in pour water into the 40 gallon aquarium 🤣. Is there another way get water in there?
Use water pumps like he did, im sure the bacteria in the aquarium will consume the ammonia and nitrites, also make sure to add 1ml of quickstart to replace bacteria
BRILLANT
my perceived transformation ....
💧💧💧💧💧🥵😶📺🤔🤯😃🐠🥰
Yes , Brilliant!✌💞🙆
Thanks man! Genius!
Enjoyed the video. Great tip! 1:40 can you post a link to the one you have? Thanks 👍🏻
Agh! I thought I added it to the description. Here you go! amzn.to/2EeQlRt
I had this idea. I thought was a original idea i spun off from how i use to do my 125 but ig not 🤣 anyway, sadly none of my old pumps i pulled out of retirement were still working...
amazing
Link don’t work for that little pump dude
greeeaaaatttttttt
Nice tip...👍 new sub.. i am in the bay area as well..
Welcome to the channel! :)
Why didn’t you just get a 10 litre bucket and a two litre jug and remove it that way ? The jugs are like £5 and I’m sure you already have a bucket
Wow sometimes everyday water changes? No way for meeee
hey if you know anything about fish health i have a silver dollar that i thought was pregnant but the baby bump is only on one side so im thinking its a tumor or something...anybody know?
Try using a power head.... 👀
Put the bucket on the floor. Have tank raised...
Unless you're like me and have a rack of tanks on the floor, that doesn't work :)
The tubing link you provided wasn’t even the right fit like wtf
Hurts your forearms LOL! Start doing hand grippers. Thank me later.
