New to hobby and trying to set up a mixing station. First pass will be a 2-brute-trashcan connected similarly to all the other ones I see on here via PVC tubing & pump in the middle.
But --- since it's 2 trashcans, I can't easily see how full either can is without popping off the lid and...

Hey all,
I have a 200G salt water mixing station still at my place after a tank tear down. It's worked great with a Panworld mixing pump (included), and side-by-side US Plastics 100G holding tanks. I have a float valve on the fresh water side leading back to a BRS 7 stage unit (all media...
Hi All,
I've finally completed my tank upgrade, from my old RSM 250 to my new 120. I had a couple main goals on this upgrade after living with the RSM 250 for a year and some change.
