Aquarium safe water storage bin

[MCDM]

Hey guys, I just purchased my JBJ auto to off system and I'm looking to get a reservoir bin to hold my top off water.

I know its best to buy a container that is food safe so does anyone have any suggestions? Looking for something in the 10 gallon range since space is limited.

Thanks

Yeah I've read good things about the 'brute' but I'm looking for something smaller along these lines.

I got this at The Container Store. It holds 12 gallons. I drilled a hole in the lid which screws on to drop my Tunze ATO pump.

After trying seveal different tupe containers this is what I ended up with. Holds about 6 Gal. and the top makes it easy to both refill and get the pump & plumbing in/out. Good luck!

I just use the Instant Ocean 5 Gallon Salt Bucket. It fits nicely under my tank.

I use an old salt bucket too.
