Tuesday night, (aproximately five days after purchase), we find ourselves at the fish store, pump/filter in hand to get some expert advice.
Nothing's wrong with the pump...yup...just if you don't latch it down just so, water water everywhere and oh yeah, a new little $5.00 seal around the top won't hurt. So why not.
Then the owner dude says, "So, how'd you fill the tank?". Here's the rest of the conversation: Terry says, 5 gallon bucket (8 times). Dude says, tired of doing that yet? Terry says, @#$ yeah. Dude says, I've got just the thing you need.
So about $90 bucks later, we walk out with a new bridge (Fish Tank Approved), a few more plants, and this handy dandy thing called a Aquarium Hose Kit.
It's 25 feet of tubular beauty designed to alleviate all back, arm, neck and shoulder pain associated with filling a 40 gallon fish tank..5 gallons at a time. LMAO.
Oh yeah, it also reverses the process and sucks all the water out if/when you need to clean the tank. Go Figure.
