Wanted: Rubbermaid Stock tanks

[DaveS]

As I ponder my tank renovation, I'm going to need 2 Rubbermaid stock tanks for 1-2 months while I rip out my existing 210, redo the room and put in the new tank. Does anyone have one or two they would be willing to lend/sell to me? Ideally I'm looking for one or two with bulkheads on the side (or if borrowing, the ability to install them). I'm probably going to connect two of them and run them in series. Borrow is preferred as I doubt I will need them when the project is finished. I guess I can always sell them to someone here when I'm done...

 

I don't need it right away and honestly I don't know exactly when I will. I still haven't pulled the trigger on this project yet. I'm just trying to line up all the resources beforehand.

 

Thanks.

They sell multiple sized ones at Southern States about a mile form me. I believe I paid around $75 bones from my 100 gallon, and they also have like 50's 75's and larger ones up to 250 gallons. They all come with a threaded fitting for a drain which is what I used to plumb out of. You can easily add bulkheads if you choose.

Hey Dave I have a an extra 27 gallon heavy duty tub, you are welcome to have, it isnt drilled or anything, but you can have it... Let me know if your interested...

Thanks for the kind offer T but I think I'm going to try and use fewer but larger bins. This would allow me to keep the system as large as possible with minimal failure points. Obviously 1 large 210G vessel would be best but since I'm not going to set the old tank back up, I think 2 100-150G tanks is the ideal option.

Thanks a lot for the offer Jim. Stafford is a bit of a haul for me but if I can't find any closer options I'll probably schedule a run down there. I have some time so I can mull my options over a little bit longer. I'll get back to you soon. Glad to hear you are past your problems and don't need them any more.

 

Thanks again.
