Good point EKB, once again I jumped the gun, but as jaymie pointed out it was early

royale, those new tank spec's sound perfect do you have link to it?

The nylex water site isn't working for me but it may work for others so try http://www.nylexwater.com.au under Products/Outside/Rural Products/Water and Feeder Troughs or look at page 4 of http://www.begafarmsupplies.com.au/nylex.pdf
Dont want to be a bastard but there are only 2 at the retailer I found @$550 (normal retail is ~$800) so i will post their name in a day or two.

It is every man (or woman) for themselves when it comes to getting a good bargain... No one would blame you for keeping it quiet. Don't hesitate either, that is a brilliant price. Go for it...

Yep, snap that one up mate... Bargain...

even at $800, that is sensational.

Thread necromancy-
Well after agonising of what tank to buy, I got the 4500l nylex jobbie and never ended up using it. I did a blue barrel and grow bed system and successfully completed my initial investigation and have packed it away for winter.
The upshot is i have a huge black poly trough taking up 1/3 of my shed which i need to reclaim so its up for sale initially only advertised here (if no one is interested Ill put it in the trader).

***FOR SALE 4500l round trough***
Diameter 2900mm
Height 870mm
It is unused, has side mounted 40mm drain and 25mm inlet, comes with float valve (if i can find it).
Retail $800, Sell $500. Pickup from Oakleigh area, (a big enough tuck from thrifty on mondays or tuesdays will be about $75, or $120-$140 other days

I was in B today and they have round 500L water tanks with removable lids on sale for $69.

Come down again. They were $79 last time I was in there, down from $89, I think, from when I cought mine. Shame about the non food safe warning.
