local place to get 100 gal vertical poly tank?

[Aqua Man 07]

Only way I'd do drums is if they had removable lids and I would need 4 I'm wanting a professional looking setup I'm done nickel and dimeing this hobby. I'm not gonna pay top dollar tho either. I'm gonna call some hydrophonic stores tomorrow if I can't find local I found them in Springfield il

I'll check at one of the farm supply stores on my way back from work on Monday. I've saw a couple of larger verticals in their lot lately.

You seem set on 100g vertical. However, for comparison I have a 240g plus a 58g and sumps and use stacked dual 65g horizontals for my WC station. 65G is way more than I need for either RO or saltwater.

Ive got two 55g drums. One for RO and one for salt. Ive also gotta 30g for top off. Ive never needed more water than that.

I want more than enuf on hand and I plan on setting up a automated 7 gal a day water change so every 2 weeks that would be about 100 gal and I'll be running top off out of the second one. I backed off of the c2c I'm sticking with this one and not changing my mind.

I plan on eventually doing a 5g per day water change myself. Havent gotten around to it yet other than running a MJ1200 with a hose from the tank to my drain. It is nice to not have to haul buckets anymore. Although I still have to upstairs on the 60.

I'm going to set up a dos on the apex to handel the job right now I pump water 25 ft across the basement rafters with a mag 9.5. I haven't decided on a pump for my 200 gallon water station yet but I might pick up a 3rd reeflow dart for that. Or just use one of the big mag drive pumps I have chillin on the shelf.

ill chek whats the diameter on it.

close too 30" it has a 2" bulk head at the bottom. a 12" screw top. I have it setup with a max cap 5 stage ro/di with there auto hi low sensors so it doesn't run all the time. It only turns on when the bottom sensor trips. then stops once it hits the top sensor. Using two bubble magnus vertical floats for a gravity fed top off to the sumps.

Well I went there got them and got them home and my interior doorways are 30 inches and the tanks are 32 *** this house blows so 2hr drive back to Effingham tomorrow yay.

No windows they will fit through?

Aqua clean out your message box.

I really don't want 110 gallon tanks but I may be persuaded to trade. I have 2 -65 gallon tanks I got a while back for a new mix station and haven't installed them yet.They have been sitting in the barn so they are a bit dusty. they are 23" round same rotomold brand.pm me if interested

This tank quest of yours is turning into quite an adventure. I still think 65's are the way to go . . . And they fit through a door at 24" diameter.

Keep us posted.
