LF 20-25gal RODI Storage Container

ReefingHavoc · 08/02/2014, 01:36 PM

As the title says, I'm looking to for a container to store some RODI water that is in the range of 20-25gal. I'm looking for something other than a Brute trash can.

I'd prefer to pick something up locally. Thanks!

Aquatica can build one for you

I thought they only did tanks and sumps. I don't necessarily need something custom. Probably out of my price range

Their prices can be pretty good at times. During next week's CSEA shop hop, or at least I think that is what it is called, the prices might be better. The Brew Pub in Strongsville sells the 55 gallon blue barrels from time to time for about $35.

Trash can from lowes, the one I have holds 30gals to the top line, and about 40gals completely full. I think I only paid about $20. Worth a look...

Ocean Rift in North Canton has a bunch of 55 gallon blue barrels with lids in stock for $49.

I might be getting a couple of those too. I am thinking of building a water station where I stack my RO barrel on top of the Salt one to reduce the number of pumps etc I use now. right now I have two 55 gal brute cans on wheels with MJ1200's in each but I have to manually take the hose from one to the other then back into the tank etc.

Joe, how many do you have? I still need to stop in and get that salt also. Maybe Friday I can make my way over there.
