Im looking to get a water storage container approximately 25g-50g similar to this:


I need it to be translucent, so i can see the water level. I am also looking for them to have built in bulk heads. I currently use 2 20g rubber maids but would like to change.

just drive south on Bank street and they will be on your left, we bought a few from that place used to be some kind of flea market before. thay are food grade and perfectly safe after you wash them with soap few times.
