Storage Drums

ncox38 · 02/23/2007, 08:20 PM

Anyone know where I can get some cheap food safe water storage tubs/ drums? I priced Brute trash cans and wow, 40 bucks apiece. I want to try to get some water aging, this dry tank is depressing me, especially after seeing fade's.

Almost everyone is depressed after seing Fade's tank. I think it's called tank envy...

capncapo · 02/23/2007, 10:15 PM

UH...Nook....that pesky Fade is doing it again!

He just sits there waving with that smirk on his face.

Can't anyone do something about him?

Im Lon 2 · 02/23/2007, 11:18 PM

Letmegrow · 02/24/2007, 11:10 AM

Im Lon 2 · 02/24/2007, 11:19 AM

Nick how many Drums do you need?

DrBDC · 02/24/2007, 12:01 PM

Are they 55's? I could use 3 of them too if everyone else is covered? How much?

Reefer Wannabe · 02/24/2007, 12:17 PM

latazyo · 02/24/2007, 01:12 PM

TWINPEAKS · 02/24/2007, 03:27 PM

Let me know I can get a few also they will need rinsed out though.

fkdenton · 02/24/2007, 04:42 PM

I need two.

DrBDC · 02/24/2007, 04:59 PM

What was in them?

latazyo · 02/24/2007, 05:16 PM

copper and poison mixed

DrBDC · 02/24/2007, 05:32 PM

Cool! I'll take a dozen then!

Im Lon 2 · 02/24/2007, 05:34 PM

I'm not sure I will have to find out.. I have 3 of them, with no problems

Fade · 02/24/2007, 06:02 PM

You can get them for around 10-15$ at Hoods in Warrenton.

ncox38 · 02/24/2007, 07:10 PM

Wow big response since i checked this last, I lost power for most of the day. Gotta love above ground powerlines.....

Anyway, I would like 2.

!wrass! · 02/24/2007, 10:46 PM

I can supply 55's or 30's for trade. I need frags. 30's had flavorings in them, 55's had H2O2.

StupidsReef · 02/25/2007, 06:07 PM

Sorry it's been busy here. I can get 55 gallon drums for FREE, I ask $5 to cover my gas used, doesn't matter how many you want it's $5 wether you want 1 or 5. Give me a few day's and I'll slip buy the company I get them from and check how many they have. I can only haul 6 @ a time. Some of them have had H202 that is from this company's oversized RO/DI units. Others have a product that pre rinces new born children at birth. You will need to rinse both of these as they sit out side after this company empty's them even though they do a light rinse. It will take me at least a week to slip by It's to late tonight.

I have used 4 of these drums Lonnie has 3 of them and used 4 of them. stlsaltwater has one of them, Nemo's uses three of them for his RO & saltwater and a few other reefers I can't remember has them. Where were you guy's @ when I had 15 of them rolling around my back yard??? I was giving them away!! Hell I had to take 6 to my work and throw them away just to get them out of my yard!!

DrBDC · 02/25/2007, 06:34 PM

Cool! Just let us know when you get them and we'll have to meet up for an IL side pizza night or something.

StupidsReef · 02/25/2007, 07:05 PM

There ya go!

. I'm getting ready to run by there now, Hopefully I'm not to late and they still have some. It's close to the end of the month so maybe they'll have some ready.

StupidsReef · 02/25/2007, 10:24 PM

OK, well I ran out there but they only had 2 left

Letmegrow I have 2 for you & ncox38 I have 2 for you. Everyone else please give me some time and I will gather more of them. I will hand them out in the oder of this thread, If you PM'd me please post here as well to insure I don't forget you. thanks.
