Hahaha nope not the home Depot orange bucket I keep my chlorine tab buckets from work cut our chlorine tabs come in a big bag so the buckets are nvr touched by the chlorine tabs but the handles are perfect on them cuz there just the right size to pinch in a air pump against the bucket so it won't fall out and I have a lid moded for the air tube to run threw so it's not overly bright like if the lid was off but other wise just a bigger version of the the standard 5 gallon bucket lol

If I knew about these ahead of time I would have jumped in and ordered a few. Looking forward to see how these turn out.

Tbh I didn't even know about them I was just browsing the vendors and came across tuic Web page and saw them listed and emailed him immediately on weds and had a response back on Thursday then didn't get a final number on what I was able to buy cuz he had 2 orders in for them didn't hear back till Monday morning that he only had 5 left so I took them all other wise I'd have 8 rt now lol but yeah I'm trying to set my 300 long into a kel and intermedia tank
 
Awesome. Glad to hear that. Hopefully the rest will follow.


Fingers crossed rt! One kel did follow suit which was nice to see since it was the skinniest one in the bunch, so happy to have my first batch of kels ever from a grow out this will be awesome I can't wait till there big enough to go with the other bass I have
