So I searched over a few threads and am thinking about a simpler, almost automatic water changer.
-have a ball valve right where the normal water level is that drains out to an outdoor sewage drain.
-run a line with a pump from my mixed water container into the return section of the sump
-all excess water added to the system would simply drain out.
* ball valve would stay open unless I needed to service the return pump or to turn the return pump off for any reason.
- if all works well the first couple of times, hook the pump from the mixed water to my Reef Keeper and do daily water changes of xx gallons (approximate)
What do you guys think. Any negatives?
