I just filled my brute 32g and will b doing in tomw. Using new AF reef salt. Not bad. I use pumps and hoses
And change from sump. Just have to roll the can. While playing the role of Quasimodo, yes master!
One of the coolest fish houses I ever saw had water storage on the second story. No pumps, water simply drained from the aquariums with a valve and fell from the sky with another valve. HeavenI hate them, I am busy. I want a basement set up where I just turn nozzles/valves and things happen.

Same here. Take 1.5% out via a big jug, daily. Don’t have a top off either so just drip in the replacement saltwater with an appropriate dose of RODI. That’s my only export, dose kalk with 2 part on hand. No skimmer, just an odd aeration method, but it works.I love them so much I do small ones manually every day.
Very similar indeed. My cube doesn't have a skimmer and I change 1 gallon a day and dose a small amount of 2 part manually. My other system about 200g total I have kalk dripping with a brs dosing pump on a cheap digital timer and dose 30ml of 2 part mostly because I haven't felt like messing with the timer to increase the kalk dosage. This one has a skimmer but it doesn't really pull a lot. I do 4g daily changes on that one. It's a breeze because the sump is in the basement next to my mixing station. Even when I did larger less frequent changes I didn't mind them. There really isn't too many things about working on the tank that I dont enjoy in some form or I probably wouldn't have the tanks. Not much point having a hobby that forces you to do things you hate doing. That's what jobs are forSame here. Take 1.5% out via a big jug, daily.

I’m on the verge of taking the official stance that reef tanks don’t even need filtration. Just water movement, light, gas exchange, and replacement of sequestered ions.I'm fascinated how reef rules for procedure works
If we posted this recommended action in 2005 any forum would ban us for heresy
You can't rinse a sandbed, duh, you'll kill the tank. With tap water? We'll ban you, your kids, and your grandkids for the mere inclination/ any site would
Give it a decade or so and any reef rule might be found completely false
Up next: the claim that reef cycles get stuck
I need a mere six more years on that one. If seneye will lower their price to 49.99 we'll have that rule rescinded in 6 mos
I tried that route and ended up with a fuge full of detritus. It was so bad I had to pull the chaeto and toss it then clean the sump and add new chaeto. And I never clean my sump. So filter socks for me.I’m on the verge of taking the official stance that reef tanks don’t even need filtration. Just water movement, light, gas exchange, and replacement of sequestered ions.
Not quite true, if you look at post #49Those that do water changes never explain exactly why,
