Will 45 gallon rubbermaid/sterilite totes bow when filled

[Kobeclone]

Noob question, but will rubbermaid and sterilite totes bow when filled with water to use as w/d filters. Also, can I drill a 2 inch hole in these and silicone 2 inch pvc pipes to connect several totes?

yes they will bow.... look up Midnight ( he's a person on the forum).. he has a do it yourself section... look up the supports he made for his units!... thats help... ... n the silicone idea is bad... what you could do it got o you local pool store and by the fittings they have for ave ground pools and use that ( i've done that before as a temp hospital tank)
