Smithjm5 Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 So I'm setting up a 65G, it'll be in my bedroom and I don't have a "fish room" where I make my water. I just have my RODi filter hooked up to the water lines under the bathroom sink. This wasn't a problem when I had my 10 gallon because I didn't ever have to mix water more than an hour and it was in small quantity's. So I'm looking for some kind of water container around 10 to 20 gallons that I can hide or blend in with my bedroom so it doesn't look like a water container, anyone have an ideas or things you've done to hide water containers? All help is appreciated, thanks! Link to comment

All help is appreciated, thanks! theres a 20 gallon size brute trashcan that you could use and build a box for, at 24 inches tall and 19 diameter it could double as a nightstand beside your bed. could also get a dolly for it to roll out on Link to comment

ajmckay Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 I like this idea the best as well... You could stick a cheap pump in it with a hose sticking out and plug it into the wall using an outlet switch so if you want to fill up a bucket (or just run a tube to the tank) you just flip a switch on or off. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000MXMH6U/ref=asc_df_B000MXMH6U3450090?smid=A2K6E5NASH359C&tag=pgmp-901-97-20&linkCode=df0&creative=395109&creativeASIN=B000MXMH6U Link to comment
Begow Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 If you find a container that's cubish or rectangular you could always put it in an ottoman. Link to comment

GTi Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 If you find a container that's cubish or rectangular you could always put it in an ottoman. I use a 10 gallon tote (clear type with wheels and a lid) for my ATO. I currently have it inside the tank stand. When I had a sump, I had the ATO next to the stand in a wider basket with lid.
