Just out of curiosity, How do you keep your wife happy enough to have three sizable tanks? A few people on here have their spouses nagging them over a small nano tank.

Some men have all the luck

i get what you saying about the water change station. I think where people are getting mixed up on is that fact that your actually closing the line and draining the w/c tank before filling it with the new water. then opening it back up to the system

Yes, that's exactly what's happening!

Wife doesn't mind the hobby. She loves the tanks, but mostly when I'm working on the tanks she knows exactly where I am. I'm either in the tank, under the tank, or at Red Coral.

She is a clever lady. You get to see Doug and I don't.

The water change will work great.....sure will save alot of work.

I pretty much had the same idea for the bypass and water change tank for my 85 gallon reef tank i was a little skeptical on my design but looking at yours im thinking now that it will work!
Cant wait to see this thing!

I've seen that water change design elsewhere so I think it'll work out. No one has convinced me otherwise so I think its a go!

[freezetyle]

is your idea similar to what Untamed has for his set up? if people were to look at that it would save some time explaining it.

YES! My execution is slightly different but the principle is exactly the same. I think my picture is prettier (if maybe more convoluted)
