Water Storage

[divewsharks]

What are good options for water making/storage 50G or bigger? I have been using a Brute trashcan for better than a decade; but would likes something bigger (especially as I get ready to bring another system online).

Why does it have return from pump into both containers? Are they both salt water? If one is fresh water I don’t see why you’d want to recirculate fresh water?

It was just to have options. In practice one tank makes RO, we then transfer RO to the next tank, mix the salt’and then use the pump to move the salt water into the display tank during a wc.
