need tank fast

[Serra]

I need a 30 long 36x16x12 for a sump. FAST. I broke the one I have and everything is ready to put my 75 up. It is all sitting in the middle of my living room.

Anyone know of one?

go buy a rubbermaid tub and use that for now.

Home Depot has tubs that are even better than rubbermaid tubs. They are heavy duty, Black with a yellow top. They are about $19. The sides don't bend when they are full of water. I think they are 27 gallons.

if you get a tub and need an open lid or holes for skimmer or anything, don't just take off the lid, it adds extra sidewall support. Actually cut a hole in the lid and allow the lid edges to remain shut/clamped/whatever closing method it uses. Helps keep the walls from sagging under the weight.

I used to use tubs from Target that were clear that worked great. They are 24 gallons i believe. Buy 2 and put one in the other just incase you get a leak. It also helps keep the sides from spreading from the wieght of the water. They are about $7 each.

Ok...I now have a 20 gal sump with a 10 gal rubber DSB/fug. It is still not up and running...I ran out of steam but tomorrow is another day. Shouldn't be that hard to finish up. (Famous last words.)

We finished up, and I was thuroughly impressed how quickly things came along on the second day after we used the first day to get things situated.
