I just suck 5 gallons out into a pail, to replace the water I have a Maxi-Jet 1200 with a hose on it and pump the water back in that way. It is fast and it doesn't disturb the sand bed. While pumping it in I direct the hose over the rock to wash off any debris that is collecting there.

I have a 33 gallon full of mixed salt water under my 135. I have a line drawn on the tank to show the 15 gallon mark. This lasts me two weeks.
I drain 15 gallons out once a week via a long hose directed towards the toilet and a jabo pump that will pump the 15 gallons back into the tank when it is drained. I now have a method of adding salt to the 33 gallon which makes mixing easy. My water changes take 20 minutes max....on my salt tank anyway. My fresh I use a 2000gph sump pump to drain them.
