Reason(s) this wouldn’t be OK?

[boogiesnap]

Water mixing station containers. 1 salt, 1 fresh.
Other than maybe a PItA to drill holes, it fits my space and water needs.
BPA free and food grade plastic it appears.

Any and all input is very appreciated.
Thank you!

13 gallons isn’t very big IMO but it is safe

Not a clue......

Not big enough (just my opinion)

 

[MoshJosh]

probably going to bow a big given it was made for dry food that would be significantly lighter than water. . . that said. . . it will probably still work.

 

[ScottJ]

If they fit and are big enough, should be fine.

I use 5 gallon containers, which is fine for my size tank.

If they are large enough for your needs they should work fine. I almost went with one for an ATO but decided against it but only because I didn't want to have to remove the lid to check the level.

I use a different brand of that exact container for the top off for my LPS tank.
Been using it for 8-9 years.

I only have a 50 gallon WB, so @ 20 gallons of water on hand should cover me barring a significant emergency.

Would share the brand? These are @ 40 bucks on Amazon.

The other option I’ve come across is a temco 15 gallon cylinder, which I do like better. They’re @ $110 before shipping. I dunno if the juice is worth the squeeze.

Just looked at shipping. $65. So it’d be $310 for two. Feels like a lot.

The brand I use is Vittles Vault sold at Petsmart and Petco ( probably elsewhere too).
Mine is 14" x 14" x 20" . I don't remember how much I paid for it, but looking at Petco and Petsmart websites, the Amazon prices looks pretty good.

While you can't see inside it, it's worked very well for me for a number of years.
I've always been tempted to try and cut in a window on the side and glue in some clear plastic, but I would hate to ruin a good thing.

$40 ain't bad

 

[aSaltyKlown]

I use 25lb (5gal) and 35lb (7gal) ones for my ATO and kalk.

It is spendy. I have one of those with graduated marks and a loose fitting lid for my salt mix.
