Hey guys,
I'm in the process of planning out a fish room in my Basement that will have a water mixing station so I don't have to mix water in buckets in the garage. however the thought of lugging buckets up stairs from the basement doesn't sound much better. the basement is unfinished now, and I could plumb in some PVC pretty easily to the tank upstairs. i was wondering if anyone has done something like this in their set ups? ideally I'd like to have a drain line that i just have to turn a valve on the return pump to have it pump water out of the system and into the drain and a second pvc line that comes off of a pump in the saltwater mixing tank in the basement and empties into the sump. does anyone have a set up like this? my fish room is a little to far away from my DT to just do a remote sump, but I'm thinking I could make this work fairly easily using two 1" PVC lines, I'm curious what others have done like this.
