Well it seems that using the garden hose is out, because there is
nothing to attach it to in order to properly fill it up. And when I try
to fill it with water from the bathtub faucet, the hose has so many
dang-blasted kinks in it, that when I try and straighten out one kink,
another is created. So it's back to the bucket brigade, which is not
good, because one of the reasons that I am Social Security Disability,
is because I have Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, which
basically means that I don't breath so good. So using buckets to attend
to my seven tanks [approx.115 gallons total] isn't an easy task.
How much are those plastic gizmos that y'all have spoke of to drain
aquariums? And is there a company that makes and sells them, that I
could deal with directly, to not only get the lowest price, but then
maybe I could get my brother to buy one with his credit card, and he
would let me pay him in two payments. Thanks.~Dean.
