I posted this image in a thread and someone asked me where it was purchased. I figured I'd start a thread here so others can benefit from it as much as I have.

Long story short, I was setting up a frag tank and needed something to hold more that 5 gallons. Someone suggested to look for RV tanks (forgot who you were but thanks for the suggestion). I found some on Amazon so just want to pay-it-forward (great movie BTW - tear jerker ;Drowning)

Here is my setup:

This is where you can buy them.

I went with the 16 gallon one and it will last me over a week on my frag tank. The one on my display will last about 5-7 days.
 
I also use it as a shield for my electronics that are on the left side of it. If you decide to buy one, make sure you have enough room at the top if going under a stand. I might even look at going bigger. Also think about transport when filled. It is pretty heavy when filled with water. I use a furniture dolly to roll mine from the garage when filling with RO water.
