I was wondering what everyone is doing for water storage?
My setup will hold about 230 gallons of water, 13 gallons in each of the 14 bins and about 50 gallons in my 100 gall res.
I planned to have 5 55gal containers all plumbed together to store water.. My water comes out of the tap @ 50ppm so i am using straight tap water. Can i just leave air stones in the water over night and ph it before I do a rez change?
I assume you guys arent completely cleaning out your systems during res changes or are the bins completely empty before you add the new water?
I under stand how most are plumbing there systems for quick drainage but once your refill the system with new water do you let it run for a couple hours then drain that new water and add fresh water to mix nutes in? seems like a lot of water and I personally have no way of storing that much water.
any insight on your guys res change method is much appreciated.
