61172977A little history... Chf 1 Bob Sickler explained a little about the differences between this tank and the old square iron sided tank we had. This is much lighter and easier to set up with much less chance for physical injury.

61172978Gallonage markings... The tank is clearly marked inside in 500 gallon increments so we know at a glance just how much water we have in it at any given time.
