hdpe

So I bought two of these new HDPE water 5 gallon containers last week and I wanted to use them, but they have kind of a funny chemical plastic smell even though they are supposed to be used for drinking water. Other than rising them out should I do something else...

I am slowly setting up my redsea reefer 650 peninsula bare bottom, how thick should I go with HPDE? I seen BRS has 1/8” and a couple other sites people are going with 1/4”, 3/8” and 1/2”. How thick is everyone going with on their bare bottom reefs.

HDPE (regular) HDPE “King Starboard” ABS Does anybody know the “True” differences of each?

Planning stages for the a 280 gallon acrylic tank. Leaning toward using Starboard for the bottom and Neoprene foam for leveling. Now comes the questions. 1) Has anyone used Starboard (HDPE)? Tell me about your experiences with it. 2) Has anyone used NEOPRENE FOAM for leveling tanks...
