Container for water changes?

[fishcube]

What is best container to hold water for water changes? Need a 55+ holding size. And prefer something that I can move around easy when empty, and fit through a standard doorway. Available in US too

And is there a pump (pump suggestion) I can fit to a python hose to use for removing and putting water into tank?

I was going to tell you guys to take a look at my recent thread... Thanks for the link akili!

Don't make the mistake I did! Make sure whatever you get is rated for the weight and water!!

You can easily go the same exact route as I did. A tad expensive but I hope to have this set up for years to come so money well spent if you as me.

Food grade barrels can sometimes be found on craigs for cheap.Got a 65gal for $20.

I would also lure more towards the food safe barrels as Bill suggested.
I'm using spare aquarium tanks I have empty to age for the time being... 110g and 2 x 65g.

I bought my white food grade barrel for $15 (if I remember correctly) off craigslist. Good cleaning and cut out a hole in the top and I was good to go.

I am using the grey 55 gallon and the grey 32 gallon brutes to age my water.
