Kiddie Pools VS: Stock Tank

The price around the Rochester/Canandaigua, NY area is around $60 for the
100 gal size. I was able to get 2 at different times this summer on sale for
$55. I found the 50 gal tank was around $50. One of the tanks was from TSC
(Tractor Supply Co) the other was from a local horse and garden supply
store.
If will have to check on the 300 gal. If they are $100 I may consider using
these as my bottom drain settlement tanks (1 for each drain) rather than a
liner hole.

I can buy the liquid cattle feed tanks of 400 gal capacity for under
$120, conplete with a top, which for use with a pond or hlding tank is
useless, so if you have any liquid cattle or horse feed dealers check
them out for some nice heavy duty poly tanks all with UV inhibit
materials, that hold up to cattle for years and years. Some even have
a drain at the bottom in a recessed area.......

Prolix is one company that makes and sells liquid feeds......and I am
sure there is others you could check out.
