Thanks, I tried them both. https://www.bareefers.org/forum/threads/smell-from-brute-containers.32455

If someone is also on the fence to build a mixing station, then hit me up and we can combine. I'm in Livermore. Thanks but that's too big for the space I have in my garage. I'll try a couple more times. Their website's contact us form is empty lol. This is the phone # I have: (408) 703-5231...

I called them about it and asking about the price since they are selling at MSRP. Total for 2x65G is $800+tax so about $880. This is more expensive than getting 2x75G shipped directly to my door.

Update: -Tractor Supply. Doesn't have 75G in stock. If they order, they would do drop ship and it's more expensive than ordering online from different stores. I asked about adding 2x75G tanks when they do their next big order but they don't do that. Concord (Livermore) feed. They don't have...

Hi all, I'm in the market for 2x75G vertical water tanks. Shipping is very expensive and I wonder if people have had luck buying them locally from a farm supply store? I tried a couple from the Norwesco's authorized distributor list but they aren't interested in getting that tank or they are...

Oh that's interesting. The containers are in the garage and I've experienced a similar issue both before and after I moved. I didn't see any negative effect on the tank so harmless seems to be correct. One issue is the taste of the water for human consumption when I transfer the water from the...

Thanks for the replies all! It doesn't happen for the first 1-2 weeks. I did test the water and no ammonia. The parameters are where they should be. I'm thinking it's the plastic somewhat off-gassing when it's hot as they are in the garage. Containers were purchased at different time from...

We moved a 72x30x24 with 4 cups. 2 on each side; 1 cup per man. We also had an extra set of hand in the back helping the tank stay straight. The cups are super strong.

On a side note, if you have your APEX on a UPS and want to detect power outages, you can purchase a $10 wall adapter. It’s technically meant to power the apex without the power distribution unit but it’s super useful to detect power failures while still protecting your tank. Once the wall...

I am currently using 3 food grade grey brute trash cans to store RO/DI, RO, and saltwater. They were brand new, scrubbed with vinegar, then rinsed with an ungodly amount of RO/DI. They store water very well for a week, then start to develop an odor. It’s hard to describe it but it smells like...

I usually keep a BAR tab open but I was off this week and had a long "honey-do" list of stuff to do :) The interesting thing is that for "Watched Forums", I have the option to "Disable email notifications", which indicates to me that the software thinks I want email but somehow doesn't send...

I’m subscribed to some forums and while I get emails for threads I’m specifically watching, I only get site alerts for new threads. Is there a trick to get emailed for every new thread in addition to standard alerts? I missed someone’s tank move and I feel bad because they helped me move mine.

Have you settled on a date for the move yet?

Massive shout out to Blaise006, Wlachnit, and Da_Neefer for helping with the move. A neighbor also came to help so we were 5 people. For anyone moving something similar in size, this is what I did: Flooring. I used these felt pads between the stand and the floor. I'm able to move the...

OK, Let's do 10am? I have 4 large suction cups. Is that enough for 4 people or should I try to get the small suction cups as well? Not sure if people use 1 suction cup per hand or 1 per person?
