Greg. I've been looking for the same thing for ages. Can't find them locally at all. I need slim ones for my stand too. Seems excessive to spend $14 per jug plus shipping. I have tried perusing the supermarket for something similar and a vinegar jug seems about as close as I can get

$14 is still cheaper than $50 for some others

You are in fact correct, but who in their right mind would spend $50 on a jug for dosing!

No kidding they are a great jug and I cant remember if you are running T5 but when u order them from Ray ( great guy ) try some ATI purple plus nice bulb

Those are the exact ones I got from Ray, bought 5 for around $60 are something cant remember. Great size and shape in a compact design.

Shouldn't have to order something like this. Most any place that sells purified water, including your local big box grocery store should have the slim refrigerator containers for sale. I have a 2 gallon, slightly wider one in the basement to store RO water.

I looked at that kind of container Mike, but I'd be concerned about them becoming brittle over time and leaking

Free (got as samples) and been using the same ones for years. Plus they also fit on a 13" shelf with a inch left over.
