I have been planning a 125g 6' tank that is going into a basement bar wall, and something just hit me:
Q: When your tank is build into a wall, how do you clean the tank? Normally when I do water changes, I use a siphon tube and vacuum up any loose cyano algae, and I sometimes scrape the front glass, etc. If my tank is behind a wall, it won't be possible to see what I'm doing. I'll be going at it blindly from the back, over what is undoubtedly going to be a big wall of rock...
How do you guys do your water changes? Do you skip the target siphoning or are there some good tricks/techniques that I should know about?
