    I'm getting ready to do a tank upgrade and normally I never have enough water on hand. This time I'm trying to be prepared. Anyone have a large brute can I can borrow? Or two medium ones? Need to hold around 100g give or take.

    Also if anyone has a collection of 5 gallon buckets, I'd like to borrow some of those as well for holding livestock and coral when I tear down the tank.

    Let me know!

    You can buy a 55 gallon glass tank from me for $35 bucks if you want. It was my cichlid tank. Hasn't been used for about 2 years. It needs some mild cleaning of the glass but otherwise is great. I used it for about a year, bought it after my 46 bowfront sprung a leak. It is the aquaculture brand or whatever from Walmart, can't be drilled as it's all tempered glass. No extra brute cans though sorry.

    Thanks @Blanch@Blanch! I'm working on getting the plumbing set up but that's the last piece of puzzle. I think I would need them around next weekend. I can PM when I know for sure.
