Looking for a Water Holding Container
 
I want to tap into the collective wisdom of the reefers on this forum. I recently got a RODI unit with a float switch. I would like to have a storage container for RODI water. Ideally I would like a small footprint one (12 x 16 inches) that would hold 15-20 gallons.

Any ideas?

I've use a rubbermaid container for years, with RODI water you just need to make sure it doesn't leech anything, which is most of them, especially when it's holding pure water that wont be harsh. There a few people that use the semi-clear stand-up ones for wrapping paper so that they have a small footprint

I am in the same situation. I am currently using a 5g bucket but it doesn't hold as much as I would like. I am looking for something thats 12x12x16 or so. Should hold about 10g. I had a 18x18x16 sump made through J&L and it cost about $100. I was just there today and forgot to ask about the price for the holding tank. :redface:

You could order some 6mm glass cut (at Candu Glass in Burnaby is where I get all my glass cut) and build a tank 12" x 16" x 18" tall (15g) or 24" (20g).
