I'm planning on setting up a 12 gallon nano with a sump at my office, total water volume of 20 gallons. To make water changes easier, I want to plumb inline a brute trash can on wheels holding another 20 gallons. (I have a way to keep it covered and out of the way.) When I do a water change, I would take the brute offline, roll it down the hall, dump it, fill it, and then bring it back online when it's properly mixed. This would effectively be a 50% water change each time.
Assuming I keep temperature and salinity the same with the tank, is there anything to be concerned with doing this? I was planning on using the ESV 4 part salt mix once a month with RO/DI water. With such big changes is once a month often enough? I'm really looking to reduce maintenance since its at work.
