Film Cannister.. Anybody have any

[kearth]

Ok alot of my frogs breed in film cannister.... Mine are starting to look like they have seen better days. My walmart now recycles them and wont just give them away. Any body here into photography and have a bunch laying around? or even a few I will pay the shipping/ postage.

The more the merrier

I use to have lots around for keeping acrylic paint in. I'll look around and see if I can find any clean ones that weren't used.

Ever scince the digital Camera came along those things have been so hard to find i've tried

Some times Wal greens and other places that Develope film with have them they might sell you a few

Prescription pill bottles work just as well, for the most part. Just wash the hell out of 'em. You could paint or tape the outside if you're worried about light penetration.

I have tried pill bottles but film cannisters works best.

Walmart will not longer sell or give theirs away.

Thanks Vicious_Fish I appreciate it.

Our local camera/photo shop will give you a ton of film canisters if you ask them. If you have a privately owned film/photo/camera whatever shop, try asking there.
