Anyone have any good ideas for water storage ? I am using brute containers but would like something cleaner looking maybe rectangular that would tuck in to the wall nicely maybe somewhere around 50 gallons to 100 gallons each

Rain storage containers look pretty nice. I've been thinking of getting a couple 55 gallon drums, there's also a 250 gallon boxes available. They're pretty cheap on Craigslist

Haven't seen square ones, but I know Norwesco produces round vertical tanks.

You need to find a company like this (http://www.barrplastics.com/plastic-tanks.html), only in your area.

Zeebest Plastics in Edmonton sells rectangular tanks, not sure on pricing though as I just went to Wing's Foods and got their 50g barrels for $20.

I purchased two tanks from marmot plastics they will build whatever size and shape you want and put bulkheads in where ever you want
Those tanks are nice. I found some similar ones at Flamans here in Saskatoon, but they were expensive. I can't remember the exact amount, but I think it was somewhere between $200-300 each.

Gpscott I would like to see a pic of what you have if you have one
I searched and searched for the type of tanks I have in the pic and I could only find them in the states (I checked out all the places mentioned here and more) you can get round vertical tanks easier and they all have tanks that would work but I liked the size of these as they take up the least amount of room and still have good capacity,I found a few places in the states that have them and got a quote
Price: $129.99 x 2 = $259.98
Shipping: $280 (UPSF to a residence)
Total Out the Door: $539.98
and that is before exchange and brokerage fees and all that
And then after all that I found a canadian site that has the exact tank as these at plastic tanks .ca they are at 204.00 each before shipping for the 55 gallon and they also have an eighty gallon version

Does anyone have any suggestions as far as hooking them up and any problems that may arise ? I imagine if you attached them in to solid cleaning could be a problem
