can you elaborate?
are you thinking about plumbing pipe to your sump/display so you wont have to drag buckets around?
 
What Toxic is saying is you need to help us help you. If you don't put any effort into your posts, you can't really expect any effort in return. You need to give us a starting point; what are you doing right now and what do you have to work with?
 
ok i have to 2-32 gallons tanks one for (ro) and one for (salt) i can't plumb it to the tank i was tanking of plumbing it to my sump it will only drain 5-8 gallon i would like to be able to drain like 25-30 gallons thanks
 
If you are looking to automate your water change check out Spectrapure Litermeter 3, I have mine set up to change 2 gallons a day in my 125 system and it does it a little at a time and does not bother the ATO. It pulls water out of the sump and puts in drain and at the same time puts fresh salt in. It also has a couple sensors to shut it off if things start to overflow. They are worth every penny to me as no more buckets or taking the time to do water changes and I never get lazy and skip water changes so my tank is happy. They are having a sale as well or you can find used for less.
 
Look like a good piece of equipment but is the same thing I can only do 5-8 gallon water changes ??

So , you have two litermeter 3 pumps. one take water out and other put salt mix in?
 
here is what I do. I have a maxijet pump and clear tubing. drop the pump in the tank and take water out. drop pump in my fresh salt mix and pump water back in. nothing to haul around except a little pump.
 
I want to do by opening a valve and closing a valve I have lines ran so my mixing tanks
