WTB: Water Storage container

Does anyone know where I can buy a container for mixing saltwater? I'm looking for something about 20-30 gallons and clear enough so that I can see the water level from the outside.

I already have a Grey 30 gal brute for holding pure rodi water but I dont think they make any clear or at least "frosted" type ones.
 
I have a 18x24 by 31 tall glass tank if your interested $80 I'm in Lemont IL
it has a blue back, it was a seahorse tank, I think its more like 50 gallons or so

Get yourself 2 uniseals, some 1/2" PVC, a couple of PVC elbows and some clear tubing. By putting two holes, one a few inches from the bottom, the other directly above, and a few inches from the top. Use PVC and clear tubing to make a gauge that you can see the water level from the outside ;)
 
So I checked out farm and fleet and couldn't really find what I was looking for.

Thanks for the offer on the glass tank timber but I lo looking for something that's a bit easier to drill.

Dgen that's an amazing idea! I have actually seen the makeshift gauge on someone else's mixing container but I had no idea what it was for. Guess that clears that up. For a second I was worried about accuracy but im guessing I can just mark the gauge with the corresponding volumes after filling the container with 5 gal, 10 gal, etc. Of rodi. Fantastic idea! Thank you Dgen!
 
Not my idea, I also saw it someplace. I wish I could remember where to give credit, but that guy probably got the idea from somewhere else, too :D
