WOW sounds like a lot! Thankfully, my tank is right near the sliding glass window door that leads to the backyard near the trees, so I can just dump it there

Must be a lot with a five gallon! Yikes :{

Haha it's all of 14 steps to my tub where I fill my 5gallon buckets at. I have 3 of them. 2 for the new water. 1 I use for the dirty waste water. I also have a 55. And yes it's a pain in the A..

How is the RD coming along?

I know what you mean! My routine is to turn the heat down in the apartment and get into an old t-shirt. Get 2 buckets, and set up chairs next to the tall tanks.

I can't lift a full bucket, so I split it between 2. I can't lift a bucket past my head, so I need the chairs.

And... 4 tanks takes about an hour? And I change 30-50% of the water twice a week. Not too bad. It's a good way to get some frustration out after taking an exam or something

Somebody is probably going to suggest we buy Pythons. I'm not very willing to do it. I'm young and able, buckets are no problem!

Bout two-four gallons, approx. Takes about seven-eight buckets to get the tank 3/4 empty

I'm lazy... I bought an Aqueon Water Changer for my ten gallon. That's the biggest tank I have but I'm getting a bigger one soon. Lol

Shoot some times I wish my tank was a lil smaller but ..... In the long run it is worth it

Oh. My family spent our tax refund on a trip to disney world... I wish we had spent it on a gigantic fish tank! Lol. Disney world went by way too fast. Fish tanks last almost forever unless they break.
