Throw the water out and make new water?

I have four cats... and never get hair in any of my mixed water? Anytime any of them get anywhere NEAR my tanks, I start yelling and I'll clap my hands. They usually bolt and wont even come near the room itself for several hours lol.

They will never be in the new tank room, and they stay out of the garage too, so it shouldn't be any issue anymore....

But, bottom line....just use a fish net and skim the new water....

pour it through a filter pad that will stop all the hair from getting through

Im assuming you use a pump to pump the water from the buckets into the tank. Steal a clean nylon from your wife, girlfriend, etc., and attach to the end of the hose. This way it filters the water as you pump into the fish tank. :D

That is a very good idea on how to filter the water before putting it back into the tank.
