His waterchange vats were too big for my application. How much water do you guys have on hand premade?
I was thinking 50ish gallons of fresh and 50ish of saltwater would be more than sufficient.

I would do a keyword search with aquaculture or foodsafe or potable water container or something like that...maybe http://www.zeebest.com/products/rectangular-tanks/ or http://www.polywest.ca/norwesco-poly...thylene-tanks/ comes up...and lotsa aquaculture stuff out there Canada wide.

I have 2 X 44 Gallon Brute garbage cans. But with my water volume, it's not enough. I wish I had more like 60-100 Gallons each. I always thought of having Glass tanks made up by concept. They would probably be cheaper than some of the plastic options. 24X24X24 (60 Gal) or even 24X24X36 (90 Gal).

I think for your application, the cheapest option would be the 44 Gallon Brutes, or those 50 gallon blue rain barrels. I really enjoy my brutes, just not big enough.

Peavey Mart sells a variety of poly tanks. I got a pair of 150 gal tanks. One ro and one salt mix. They do have smaller ones. I think they were around $140 each.
