6 discus in a 50cm high 200l tank?

Dude.. you really need to invest the $20'odd and buy one of those python thingies that you can hook up to your sink.

15m of hos is no big deal :)

I think the clear stuff is like $3/m...garden hose type stuff is even cheaper I think.. think of the time it would save you.

you could use the python thing to siphon out a window if there's one handy there and then just let 'er fill!

How much actual time do you spend doing water changes?

You must live and breathe buckets 16 hours a day!!!

I spend about 10 hours a week maintaining tanks - a lot of that bucketing water whilst listening to music, so its not that bad.

If I spent an hour changing water every night my other half would go crazy....back and forth with buckets and the sound of running the taps.. all the 'ooops' comments when the bucket overflows or you fill up up to the top and then spill it as you're carrying it (cause you're trying to save yourself an extra trip later) or if you manage to get it there still full you spill it as you lift it up to tip it in...ooops again...

he reckons its like chinese water torture!

(OK.. sorry Sl.Blue Dalmation.. back to your discus)
