Maybe one of those 9-gallon leakers that were around some years back.

That is what it looks like, they were fiberglass tanks.  Cheap price, part it out ??


Life is like a hot bath. It feels good while you're in it, but the longer you stay in, the more wrinkled you get.

There was a machine shop in California who built 9 of those humongus tanks.  He cut them down the middle and welded a 6 or 7" strip in the middle.

Several of them leaked.

Mine didn't leak, but it got a hell of a ding in the top and we couldn't get it straightened out.

So rather than fill it full of putty, I chose to go back to the old stock tank.

I don't have a clue where that tank went as it laid around the kids shop for several years and I think it got tossed.
