Looking for a large plastic tank

I am looking for the manufacturer of this item:


It's a large..

48" x 48" x 36 tall "pallet" sized plastic vessel...

It's tan in color (although color doesnt matter to me)

Most wholesalers use this type of tank to hold liverock... That's exactly what I want to do with it..

I just was wondering if anyone had ever heard or seen of such a thing..

Thanks in advance.

I was looking for something other then the Rubbermaid containers.. Specifically, these containers are "Square" or "Pallet" shaped.

But thanks!

Here are a couple of sites that sell square plastic tanks.

www.plastic-mart.com just about any size tank you need but they're spendy.

www. carsonind.com I have trouble getting into this site but they have two tanks one is about 248 gallons and the other is about 290.

Hope this helps
