Has anyone used these on their tanks yet? No ill effects after cleaning?

 

[flightjunkie]

Great timing. I getting ordering an RO\DI this week and this will come in handy. Thanks

Chlorine with water could also be used. This is how I cleaned my last set of barrels.

I get 15 gallon plastic barrels with lids and such from work if anyone's wants any.

Very funny young lady, i was hoping youde respond. Thanks for the info, but regarding me not reading: this is your last quote and no one else posted height, :spin2:

It measures approximately 22 inches across and 48 inches high, which gives a volume of about 75 gallons. (If anyone needs more exact measurements, just let me know)

BTW_ Matt- Treeman who doesnt hang out here very often anymore always suggested ammonia for cleaning tanks.

He would buy tanks used for chemicals before and told me ammonia would neutralize chemicals.

So i would do ammonia, then vinegar. One is a base, one is an acid.

If they are the dimensions Gayle mention they are over 70 gallons on the ones available here locally at Western Beef.

Alright for those who have been asking, I have the real official measurements.

23" wide
44" high

According to the online cylinder tank calculator, it comes out to hold about 79g.

Stand was built by 120Reefermadness:

Frame measurement is 24"x24" and it fits perfectly with the precut board that they sell at Home Depot.

Most Western Beef stores have them. I would do a quick google map search before heading up to this one in Pines. The Pines location is off Pines Blvd and University. When they ran out, I found one further north and got it from there. $45 or so bucks. Very good quality stuff.
