What do you use to hold water for water changes?

I'd look into talking with a distillery if there are any around where you live. They might have something. After that I'd go check out the farmers supply stores in your area. The norwesco containers are super cheap and come in more sizes and shapes. The lids usually screw on and off and some already have bulkheads. If you can set up a mixing station that will hold 125 gallons of water you would be set for a lot of problems that could arise.

A big 120 quart cooler. No scheduled wcs, so portable.

I've got an AWC installed, so I use a 20g tank that I picked up at PetCo's $1 / gallon sale.

Used to use brutes, mag-drive pumps and 50' sections of vinyl hose. Kent Float Valve on a single 44g brute to make RO all the time when needed. These work great.

Now, I have a 55g rectangular containers, PanWorld pumps and still 50-75' sections of vinyl hose. My tank is a long way from my storage room. I will end up with a second 55g container for saltwater (where I have the IO stacked now) - 105g total, or so.
