I just did the easiest water change ever on my 125. I did a 30% change. I didn't lift a bucket, lol. I used a python to empty the water down to the basement sump. (gravity fed) I then used a mag 9.5 to pump the new water from the basement back into the tank thru the python tubing. Took about 35 mins. for the whole water change. The hardest part was stretching the tubing to fit over the output of the mag 9.5. Guess I'll do allot more water changes now that I don't have to haul buckets to the sink then up from the basement.

Dugh, now why didn't I do this from the beginning? Because I didn't have a python, lol. I strongly suggest everyone get one, if you don't already have one. It is so worth the $45.00 for the 100 ft one. (I cheated, I got it free from my mother in law. I gave her my old 55 gal. so she was happy to give me the python that she never used.)

Now i can enjoy the rest of my day off doing NOTHING!!! Yeah!!!!
