Hey guys I am getting a 300 gallon tank in a couple of weeks and in preparation of it getting here I am trying to figure out how it is I am going to mix up 300 gallons of salt water...... Does anyone have a storage container that can hold large amounts of water? around 100 gallons or so I can rent it from you if need be.

I don't want to spend 800.00 for a 300 gallon storage tank to use it only one time.

Why can't you just mix it up in the tank, once the tank is in place? Like, 3/4 full and then add sand using the 'Trash bag' technique and then add rock?

I would like to let it mix for at least 24 hours before putting my corals back in.

I've got a 100 gallon livestock tub you can borrow. It is the one in the sunroom, if you remember it form when you came down.
