Finally located a safe IBC Tote to use ...

We finally located a safe IBC Tote to use for our system. I was amazed to find out what kinds
of chemicals are in those things. Many are not suitable to use for a fish tank or aquaponic use, no
matter how hard you try and clean them out.

My guy called me yesterday and said he had picked up 26 totes. I asked him to pick the best one
for me and hold it because our plans are to pick one up on Friday.

Still need to buy a grinder and some cutting disks, since I don't have one for modifying my tote
cage and the inside plastic container. I really don't need an excuse for buying a new power tool :-)

Stay tuned for further progress ...

Thanks for that tip Vlad. It will save me some frustration I am sure.

In that case...go ahead and pick yourself up a jig-saw while your at it...for the plastic...less melted stringy-spider-webby plastic than with the grinder :)
