    Does anyone have plans or ideas to a gravity fed top jug? 1 or 2 gallon jug would be good. I heard i could use a air valve.Thanks

    I use a 20 gallon tote with a 1/4" bulkhead..use ro/di line to an adjustable float valve from bulk reef supply. The float valves water outlet never touches the saltwater so don't really have to worry about salt creep too much..I do soak it in vinegar when I clean my pumps. Been using it for 2 years no problem
