I am going to purchase a 100 gallon tank today to grow out some fish in and wanted some advice on the two options below.


http://www.tractorsupply.com/rubbermaid-reg-structural-foam-stock-tanks-100-gal-capacity-2229901


http://www.tractorsupply.com/tuff-stuff-products-heavy-duty-oval-tank-110-gal--2229862


Has anyone ever used either of these?

Would you recommend one over the other and if so what are the reasons for your choice?

Thanks

Just reading through the reviews, looks like the Tuff Stuff tank is the better option for you. I realize it doesn't have the drain like the Rubbermaid one has, but I imagine you can bucket enough out to make it light enough to tip it over.

i used a 110 gallon rubbermaid stock tank for 1 season outside a few years ago... i've used the tank for other stuff since,, it's held up well (no leaks)

Went with the tuff stuff due to the reviews and that being the only option they had at our store. Plus I am sure I could add a drain later if I need to. Just have to check around and make sure it will work before I cut a hole in the tank.
