Water storage containers

[tynman]

I would like to know if anyone on here knows where I could get a 55 or 65 gal food grade (one that wont leach phospates into my new saltwater that I make) in New Jersey or New York. Cause the one I am using now is putting phospates into my new saltwater. I could get it on line but the price of shipping is more then the container itself. Please let me know if you know of any place.

Im looking for ones like this

I don't think you'll find anything like those local. I was in luck and picked up the 100 gallon container you see in the photo from a fellow MR member. Worse case scenario just pick up one of the 50 gallon BRUTE trash containers. But if you want to keep looking for the container you mentioned here are a few more places:

My RO/DI storage container is made by Chem-Tainer, which I highly recommend.

Thank you for the links. I am going to keep looking because I would ike it to be clear or almost see thru so I couid see my water level on the side so I dont have to make it in 5 gal pales. there is a place in nj called ryan herco I found but they are not open til monday. So that gives me some time to shop and see what else I could find.

I need it to be 55 or 65 gal. 5 gal wont work.

There was a guy on njreefers.org who sold 55G white barrels that were food grade. I picked it up from him at Rutgers New Brunswick. Not sure if he still sells them but if he does you gotta air it out from whatever food was stored in it.

I use a blue plastic 55g barrel...I drilled a hole near the bottom, installed a bulkhead with a pvc 90* elbow, and clear pvc pipe on the side...and can easily see exactly how much water is available

Well I found a place call champion container in nj with the white 55 gal barrels. they have a warehouse in avanel but of course the open top container they didn't have there so I had to drive to Swedenborg NJ to pick it up. It still was cheaper then having it shipped. Thanks for all your help and suggestions.
