Last, but not least. As I was posting the previous pictures, I realized there was actually something I did do myself besides all the plumbing and such. I have a lifeguard 40 watt UV filter sitting in my sump fed by a mag 9 pump. I made a manifold to attach to the end of it so that by turning a couple of valves, I can use that same pump to pump water fromt he sump to the street via a long hose. I then turn the valve, and the water recirculates from the UV back to the sump. Makes water changes such a breeze that I can change 50g in literally less than 10 min. without even getting my hands wet. Just turn 2 valves, wait for it to drain, turn 2 valves, turn 2 more valves and wait for it to fill, and then turn 2 more valves. That is it.

Sorry, but I ahd to post something since i know a bunch of you are going to psot all this cools stuff and I don't want to feel left out
