Garbage Can... Is there are size specific

[tbowling19]

Good morning everyone. I have a 210 gallon that I am about to start. Home Depot has garbage cans. Do I need to get a 32 or 44 gallon. Does it matter? Does having bigger help for a reason... Should I go bigger then 44 gallon

I'd go with the biggest Brute you can fit with a tank that size, in my opinion go with the 44. Best of luck

I keep a couple 44 gallon brute cans. I may only use one at a time, but the other is pretty convenient to hold extra hoses and pumps in. Then when all the maintenance is done, they stack together and take up the space of one.

Bigger the better for an emergency also.
If you need to do a big water change better to have the bigger can.

If you use IO salt, a 50 gallon bag will get you darn close to reef salinity in a 44 gallon brute.
