WTB: Water Storage Tank/s

[Msoar16]

Looking for something new or in good shape, any local places that sell these would be good to know. Somewhere between 60 and 120 gallons

I was getting around to listing my water change station for sale. Its I believe two 45 gal brutes. The top one has a float valve on top that was fed from my rodi, the bottom of this container has a bulkhead thats reduced to 1/4" pipe and gravity fed my ato and a second bulkhead with a valve that dumps the ro water into the mixing tank below. The lower container has a powerhead, heater and large pump(don't remember the brand) to pump the fresh mix over to my tank. The stand has a bulkhead and plumbing with valves also to help mix the the salt and then you turn a couple valves to direct it to the tank. The bottom tank has the casters and I have both lids. $100

Thats a good deal.

Is this in your garage or in your basement? Do you happen to know the footprint of the space it takes up? Thanks.

Its in my basement 24" x 30"

I'll have to check my mechanical room tonight to see if something like that will fit. Thanks.

Damn, nobody has bought a water storage tank locally lol

Todds Tropical fish has the 55 gallon barrels that I use, he had like 5 or 6 last time I was there..

I did the same thing as 68sting, Bought 2 of the 44gal brute trash cans. 1 for rodi, 1 for salt.

They also work great use one for ato on my 225g they make a wheeled base for them too that can be nice to move em if needed

 

[Msoar16]

Thanks but need something with a bulkhead on the bottom.

So install one on the trash can. That is the way I have mine setup.

Found it cheaper to buy a 2x4 and some casters. I think they wanted like $40 for the base with wheels.

and yes, a bulkhead is easily installed on them.

I picked up a couple of the empty syrup barrels from the local Pespi distro. I think they want maybe $15-20 for them. They have threading for like a 1" fitting. I just cut the top off and plumbed it to a little giant. Added a valve and a hose and run it through the floor for water changes. Pic[attachment=60631:name] attached

I would rent/borrow a power washer and spray that thing down first.

They actually come clean pretty easily. Mine were Mtn Dew and I just used the hose with a nozzle and they came clean. Definitely need to be rinsed though
