What can I use to make dosing containers?

[REEFIN RIOS]

I have no clue what I can make these out of and to buy one is just too expensive!
Thank you in advance!
Happy reefing!

I'd go with any food safe container that fits your needs.

For my smaller system I used Mayonnaise jars, the big ones.

My parrot empties 1 gallon, square, screw top food containers regularly. Most end up with brass in them (firearms and reloading are my _other_ hobbies)... but I used 2 of them as Calc/Alk reservoirs for some time. Worked great.

These days, the bottles that Triton Core7 comes in work fine for me.

All are very good suggestions! I like the voss water ones! But I'll see what additives I lll use and what they come in!

I'm using 3 litre, clear, formally apple juice containers.

I used Nalgene bottles. Also drilled small holes and glued in check valves so air can enter but not get out.

See. We are thinking of you and you didn't even know it.

Also, that means you have plenty of old Apple juice containers laying around, right? ;)

Hey, if you clean it out right I'm sure a milk jug would work too!

...no one grows out of apple juice :)

My wife bought me a 3 pack of gallon ro/distilled water and I use those jugs bc I didn't want to chance it having to clean one out.
