I don't know if I have the time and energy to be hauling 20 gallons of water back and forth to my sink every couple of days.

A python type water changing system is worth its weight in gold! You can either make one, using a jet pump usually sold for water bed use, and ordinary plastic plumbing, plus a garden hose, or you can buy a Python or cheaper knock off version. This lets you do water changes with far much less work and spillage than when you use a bucket. Water changes are so important, unless you do a non-CO2 tank, than spending money on a Python should be top priority. Here is one version: JBL Aqua In-out [761402] - £44.99 : Aqua Essentials
