I've experienced a few times using the 5 gal buckets for preparing the ro water. Luckily, all my fish tanks and works were taken place in a specified corner inside the basement and the wife wouldn't notice it otherwise I goona to be in big trouble. By the way, the barrel you're using is 30 or 50 gal? I'm looking for a used food grade one, any idea where to look for one so that I can save a lot of space for storing more than 10 nos. of 5 gal buckets. Thanks!

Its at least a 50 Gal I got it from Spagnols. It is a used grape container so food safe.
I know you can buy barrels on graigslist. Not sure what was in them but the picture showed the white ones and they are normally food safe.

hers a link for you ferret...

Thanks a lot! A real price!

Ouch, sorry to see that happen to you.

Like some others mine is beside a floor drain so when I did forget it wasn't a big deal.
