10 gallon water change can

[Jarrett]

i do weekly 10 gallons wc's on my 75 gallon tank and i am just tired of mixing my water in two seperate 5 gallon buckets. does anyone know where i can get a 10 gallon bucket even 15 is fine that way i can just mix my water change water all together.

get a brute garbage can, they have a bunch of different sizes..home depot, and lowes carry them. i would get a 20 gallon and fill it up halfway. better to have more room for a bigger water change in case of emergency.

I use a 32 gal pail. Always have salt water mixed. That way I can change water at the drop of a hat.

I use a Brute garbage can as well to do water changes on my 75. I did the whole two 5 gallon bucket thing and I know what you're talking about. Go get a Brute garbage can, it'll make things MUCH easier.

Target sells 20 gallon plastic containers in the Rubbermaid section for less than $10. I have two and they work great.

alright thanks guys. imbarrie are those containers food grade? thats what i need right so phosphates dont leach into my water?

I would just go with the Brute can. It is food grade and has a lid. I might have to splurge and get 2 larger ones to do 30 gallon changes.
