What size brutes would you guys get for total volume 130 gallons (sump and display) for water changes weekly? If i do 10% it’s 13g. Is there a better option? Should i round it to 15g and just use 20g brutes?

I don’t see too many 15 gallon containers

I’d go to a 20g. Even a 15g will be full near the top with 13g in it. Just makes for more mess when the water sloshes around a bit from moving from the RODI station to the tank area. Unless you don’t have to move it at all, in that case get the 15g.
 
32g. Can do more or less water, as needed. Don't need to fill to brim.
