Those are some nice barrels Funky Fish. Do the lids come off? What are they normally used for and what sort of retailer might carry them? I know our U-Brews sometimes sell big 55 gallon plastic barrels but the tops do not come off.

Wing's Foods in Edmonton gets food safe plastic barrels some with a small lid and some have a large 2 pc removable lid. They usually sell them for $15 - $20 each. Mine had a slight pickle smell to it for a little while but had no effect on the water. I believe they are 45 gallons.

Wow, some nice setups. One day I wish to have something like what was posted. personally I just filter my water in jugs, then mix in a 10 gallon container and add to tank. Probably not very optimal, but it works.

My container is from a wine making store and is food grade.
