Aquarium Advice Regular
Yeah he limited me to under 55gal. I'm workin on talkin him into a 125. Either that or two more 55s which yeah. Less space. I'm sure I'll be able to convince him when I have the cash to burn on my fish babies.
With some DIY skills you could potentially have 3 tanks lined up from floor to ceiling.
I got my self.... I mean my gf a tank for her b-day. She loves it tho so everyone wins
Draining the ground floor tank is a royal pain in the wot sit!
(No head=slow syphon) this also makes the faithful gravel vac useless.
A bare bottom set up with drilled sides and a shop size filter could cure this. (I think)
If the distribution of tanks is equalised with the top tank being closer to the ceiling, you would need some other than a bucket method of re filling the top tank but you get slightly more (negligible) syphon action on the ground floor.
If you could magic up a multi tank water change system, do it! (Assuming you have individual systems, this could be tricky) for a breeding farm, great news.

Simple. Overflow each tank to one tank and pump it back like a central sump and do a water change that way. Filling the top tank would be easy if you just get a python. Filling it up couldn't be easier unless you age your water or something.
You could use I believe it's called a baffle pump (i belive) to put water back in the top aquarium. You can set up an drain for each tank to your house dwv system and have a pressure regulator dripping water back into each aquarium from your cold water essentially making a waterchange free aquarium. but then the gravel vac becomes hard again. Search up self changing aquarium on YouTube posted by eurajoey I believe is his name. Just set this up for each tank.
It only cost 12 bucks for a hydroponic drip system comes with everything you need. Then you just need a charcoal filter to remove your chlorine and other filter you may want and you good. 12 bucks each tank and one filter? If that's to much money I don't see how you can buy your fish to stock your tanks.
There are many ways to do it efficiently look at some breeder set ups.
