I’m wrapping up my tank and QT tank and want to add a water change station before I start them. The places I’ve shopped before just aren’t maintaining their tanks as well as in the past. Which has me wondering how well they maintain their water production area. So I’ve decided to just build my station now.

I will probably do the two Brute Trash can method. I’m open as to plumbing size. I will only need to send water about ten feet or so horizontally and maybe three feet vertically.

What pump do you recommend for that job? Thank you.
