just a quick one guys..Can i use any type of plastic for the 3 drawer filter? i have some plastic drawers that i plan on using for a filter but it never occured to me til now that it may have to be a certain kind of plastic? it will be a freshwater set up not marine...Any help would be great as i was planning on starting this tonight

I have never heard of any plastic drawers leeching anything harmful into the water. I would avoid anything painted though.
