Default Changing Water in Viv

I am planning on a false bottom in a exco viv tank for one crested gecko. My plan is to use Leca Balls; garden screen, & eco earth with live plants. Any tips to allow me to change the water in lower level or is this necessary.

You did not mention any running water feature so I am guessing its just for drainage. In my vivs I ran a 1/4" line and secured it to the bottom, once enough water collects I siphon it out.
