If you have a store near you that sells Farm Equipment they will normally have them for a good price.

I just use a 55 gallon heavy duty trash can. I put a bulkhead in the bottom and ran tubing to a Mag 5 pump to pump the water into my sump. I have a KENT float valve near the top connected to my RO/DI so it auto fills with no worry about overflow. I have a heater and an air stone running all the time. I mix my salt after it refills after a water change and it is ready and waiting next time I need to do a water change.

thats kind of what i have right now
but i have a maxi jet ph in each trash can and some length of tubing connected to the outlet of each one and thats how i transfer water to the saltwater mix with a heater and air one and then the sump
but i want to do bigger water changes at one time so i want x2 100 gallon water storage tanks
im going to be getting the float valves to and one big ph at the top of the saltwater mixing tank and one at the bottom to mix the saltwater well before i heat it and send it to the sump
i will be using a mag 9 to pump it all to were i need it it will be all plumbed in

MrineLfRlz · 11/19/2009, 01:10 AM

update:
well if anyone is still interested i decided to just get a 55 gallon poly tank here is my setup
i will be getting a 100 gallon later when i get close to getting either a 220 or 240 long DT upstairs

i ordered it @ tank-depot.com
