Unlike some people I don't have a dedicated "Fish Room" so I have to carry water in 5 gal buckets to my tanks. Its a pain but it you do what you gotta do!
| I know what you mean. My tank is in the living room away from any water outlets.
Thanks to everyone for there suggestions. I'm thinking of going with hooking it up in the laundry room, but there isn't a sink in there so would it be better to maybe fight the-under-the-kitchen-sink war and get it over with? I'm trying to think of the easiest way to get rid of waste water without any unsightly lines peeking out.
I've noticed people mentioning that they sometimes only run theirs for a few hours (obviously we all don't need 75 or 150 or however many gallons per day). Is there a simple on/off switch or do you disconnect it or something?
Thanks again. Sorry to hassle anyone, but pipes and water lines scare me (I have carpet) so I want to get it right.
