Anyone got a DYI auto water change system?

[myjohnson]

So in an attempt to make my tanks more hands off I'm looking to install an auto water change system.

Anyone got one set-up or know of any good links?

Drip system would do fine. I saw John's set up and it looks doable. I just wanted more ideas before I start drilling holes in my wall.

Got a drip system. 25 gal a day. Still have to w/c every couple 3 or 4 days. Side yard is a mud hole. Could plumb it to the sewer clean out. automatic w/c mikewhotrong would be the man.

I'm thinking about doing this on my 75g. You remember how it's like an in-wall tank?

On the other side of the wall is the restroom.

I'm still trying to figure out how I'm going to do the drain line. Any place that I can dump the water is higher than the water line in my sump.

I have been thinking about doing this for a while now, but don't have it in my head on how to do it yet.

No problem dude. Thats what friends are for. Well I would like to do the same for my big tank but no way to get the water there. In that system you could always insert a carbon filter in between so you never have to add chemicals. Total hands free.
