    Did a little work this weekend on a water change station. I copied the design off another reefer in New York.. Loving it so far..

    Needs some work but 2 - 35 gallon brute trash cans work nicely. Top one is RODI. Bottom is salt when needed.

    The tall storage tanks are great but how do you clean them? I know my brute cans always have a little slim after 2 weeks of holding water. Awesome setups, just started building mine great thread.

    Well I found the tanks used. I did put unions on there so I can remove the tanks to do a cleaning.. THe good thing is the bulk fitting is a few inches up so the larger stuff can settle and a shop vac is what I used to clean them the first time.

    Making 50 gallons right now and oh man this is soo nice

    I have a korila 4 at the bottom of both my RODI and salt cans and have them on timers to run once every 4 hrs for 30 minutes to keep the water from sitting to long and causing slime. Thought about just running them 24/7 but don't have a need quite yet.
