Hi Dave,

How I wished this was my setup! No, not mine, just photos I've seen. We are still trying to locate food grade IBC containers to use to build ours but they are not readily available in our area. We thought we had located some but after some questioning of the guy trying to sell them, we found that they had contained potassium fluoride (KF). He claimed they were food grade, but after googling KF, I don't think I want to chance it. Smaller setups usually use goldfish, but my husband would like to use perch so we can eat'em. That requires a bit bigger tank than the blue plastic 55 gal barrels. Guess we'll keep lookin' for IBC's.
Love and peace...
