    Hey all just left a shop in Beaconvale - They have food grade plastic drums available from 20litres to 1000litres and they are CHEAP..

    I got 2x250litre for R250, 3x30litre (open top lid with clamp) drums for R120

    Nicest bunch of guys I have met in a long while and they are open Saturday mornings.. :idea::idea::idea:

    I used the two 250litres as stored water for water changes. I've added a small geyser element to each and a temperature controller to keep the water at 26 degrees. These are then piped to the fish room for quick and easy water changes..

    The 30 litre drums are for the following :
    Drum 1 will be made into a coil de-nitrator
    Drum 2 will be a canister filter
    Drum 3 will be a pH additive mixer
