I think he means bigger that the 5 gallon actual buckets they come in.
Man I feel stupid. :hammer:
Yes, you can get your LFS to order 200g boxes, or you could go the public aquarium route and special order!
i dont know about you guys, but this only gets me through one water change... :hammer:
but yeah, i buy the 200g boxes, which has 4 bags...that each hold 50g worth of salt. those last a long time IMO. and are pretty cheap, i think they go for $40-$50, but sometimes you can convince a LFS to get in a bulk order of them and reduce the price to the mid $30's, which is how i've gotten all of my boxes.
btw......i REEEEEEAAALY wish i could get ahold of some of those buckets that IO used to put their salt in, with those screw in tops. i loved those buckets.
anyone know where i can buy some off the internet? i would LOVE YOU FOREVER if someone found a place.
Hey Surfin,
I think I found what you are looking for. They are called Gama Seal Lids. They will fit most plastic buckets and are 2 pieces, one piece snaps onto the bucket and has threads for the second piece which is the screw on lid.
Here is a link http://freckleface.com/shopsite_sc/store/html/gammaseals.html
Hope this helps. Those screw on lids are very handy.
Let us know how this works out.
P.S. Also a good place to buy Acrylic and tubing.
why not just buy some buckets of salt?
i mean youre gunna use them anyways right?
so on top of the salt you get the buckets as a bonus
im FINALLY almost done with 1 bucket of salt and have 2 more to go through
gunna be a LONG time before theyre emptied, but the buckets do a REALLY good job in sealing the top to keep moisture out and the salt fresh
the buckets of salt cost more per pound, for less salt compared to buying a box of salt.
