Currently setting up New tank. ( new to hobby). Was going to purchase used 5 gallon plastic water jugs but concerned because they were once used for soap and bleach. The seller say they are clean which I believe, however worried because plastic is porous. I am worried although clean taking to my LFS for water, for my tank I could potentially mess up the saltwater and mess up my tank and its cycle.
More details: Tank is starting first cycle with Carib Sea dry purple rock and live sand.

Any advice will help thanks!
 
Have you checked Win Co they use to sell jugs there, they looked like the ones the aquarium stores sell, pretty cheap.
 
Yes Winco hopefully they still sell them, I do not like the stackable type, they are to get all of the water out so you get algae in them.
