Is there an award for being a reef dummy head?

[i have crabs]

i now stick the bucket in the sink (laundry sink) when i make just a bucket at a time.
im gonna go buy a sprinkler timer so i can just crank the time to run for a hour or 2 at a time

welcome to the flooded floor club

ahahaha. I wish I had only done it twice. At the start I'd forget it probably 80 percent of the time. I fill 18 litre water jugs and place them in a 5 gallon pail for a little extra capacity. Lucky for me there's a floor drain right there though. I've gotten much better now though and rarely forget.

Yes there is, and I own it done that many times. I fill my water upstairs. One time my son came runn1ng upstairs yelling that the roof is leaking!!! What a mess.

I've been trying to fit 50 gallons into a 20 gallon container for at least 20 years and cant figure it out, if you can please share.

you need to use the square 20g. 50 gallons won't fit in a round 20g container, I've tried.

That's a wonderful idea!!! Mind you to stay focused on timing out how long we need to have the timer going will be the challenge. There are always a million more interesting things to do rather then watch water into a pail. I have made almost to the end, and the dogs wanted in, the phone rang, went to refill my java...

The bucket in the sink is a great idea but the lines are not long enough to do it. I was thinking to go to UFA to get a very big water storage drum or plastic rain barrel, but I am not sure if the plastic will leech toxins or not.

Anyone use anything aside of rubbermaid garbage cans for water? At least I could probably wait all night before flooding the basement or something. My husband was able to install the sink, but not close to where he plumbed the RO unit. He did not think we needed a sink but changed his mind later in the project.
