White ato container?

[Weikel]

hi reefers! I am setting up a white rsr250 and need a ato container. I am looking for something that matches the stand preferably like white acrylic. I need like 5-10 gallons? Every where I look I can’t seem to find a white one.. any ideas on where to get one?

Thanks!!!

What you need is a stylish 7.5 gallon trashcan.

Ha the only way I talked the wife into a new tank was I assured her that all of my stuff would stay under the stand.. she won’t be happy with the ato out of there but I can sneak it in if it looks nice haha

Well a stylish 7.5 gallon trashcan is sitting next to my sump under the tank, inside the stand. $7 from Crapco.

I've never ordered from them but I did exchange emails and while I don't know the owner Ben did reply and answer some questions I had. Very friendly and responsive. I ended up going with something different but hind sight being 20/20 I should have just went with my original plan. In any case echoing in my exchange with them it was very positive and up front.

Is your trashcan from Costco? Any worry about it being food safe?

I think it was from Big lots. I have used common plastics for several things in my system over the years without problem.
