I am wondering what kind of storage people out there are using for thier R/O water. Should one keep R/O water in a pressurized R.O. water storage tank or is a food grade barrel adequate?

All I used for years was a 40 gallon garbage can when I had the reef...never a problem

55 gallon Rubbermaid trash can. Works perfect

Food Grade 55 gallon drum, you can get 'em dirt cheap or free from your local soft drink bottler...

Thanks for the replies. I'm usually not storing the R/O water for long; so far 3 days at the most. I was wondering if it is OK to store it for longer, say a week or two?

It's just water with almost nothing disolved. You can keep it as long as any other water. Several weeks should be no problem. Don T.
