Yeah it's been holding water for a few hours. would not recommend for anything other than a fill test.

This is a good spot for my new setup after the tank ripped at the seam, its only temporary (I hope) but it works, and is a good way to filter 3 50 gallon containers. lol container really bows out alot without zippy ties

Mike that shows some nice hillbilly skill but if you want those Rubbermaids to last alittle longer you can build a 2x4 frame that fits around the containers at around 3/4 height and they won't flex anywhere near as much
