Show me your ATO storage containers.

Lets see what you store your RO/DI water in for your ATO..
well Im looking to get a new ATO container.right now I'm using a 30 gal tub from wall mart,but don't really need anything this big prob more like 5-10-15 gals..any objections to using a home depot bucket?..well show me what your working with, I'm looking for ideas..not really sure where to get something safe,as my tub is starting to turn colors and is getting a little funky(even when disinfecting it..

 

These may be a bit large for you too



Questions:

- Where do you want this to sit. Under the stand? Separate? If under stand, how tall is your stand?

- What is your price range?

 

I use a 5 gallon bucket from Lowe's. Never had any issues.

 

Yip deff to big,lol..it would be going under a separate stand next to the tank.size wise prob looking at 24" x 36"(with some wiggle room)..price cheaper the better,but for some thing good I may be able to convince the wife..

 

Thanks this is good to know,how long have you been using it..

 

I would say about 4 months now.

 

I am also using a Lowes 5 gallon bucket. Going on roughly 18 months with no issues.

 

I'm using a 5.5 gallon aquarium 16x8x10 ...was cheap at the local store i think 11.00 and fits perfectly in the area i had left under the tank.

 

here's mine it's black to match my tank/stand and is 10g. I got it online at plasticmart I think. I spent maybe $50 or so. Wanted it to look aesthetically nice since my tank is in the family room. I loved how the lid had a hole already that I could feed my hose out of.

 

I use a 14 gallon garbage can and only fill it up about 2/3. I actually have 2 one for mixing salt water and one for top off. I put a pump in the salt mix and let it pump water in while I siphon off. Works out pretty well.
