they are the 3.78l milk jugs found at the grocery store. it takes about an hour or 2 to thaw (depending on water temp). if i want to really bring down the temp i will take the cap off of the milk jug and let the sump water mix with it. this method allows much quicker melting of the block of ice, which i try not to do as to not shock the tank inhabitants with a rapid temp change.

the best advice i can give is to try it out and find what works best for you.
