I have a Rubbermaid Brute container that I fill with RO/DI water. It's in my furnace room not too far from my reef tank. I mix the salt in it and use a powerhead to mix it for a day. For my reef tank, I just use a pump and hose to pump the water out of the sump, and the new water back in from the mixing container. For my FOWLR tank upstairs, I haul the water up in a couple of buckets. I only do 10 gallons at a time on it, so its managable to do it that way.
