I've seen these used the 55-gal plastic drums posted on CL for some time now and figured they would be great to make a decent water station with. I inquired with the guy recently on what exactly they were used for. He asked what I wanted to use the drum for, and when I told him aquarium water, he only recommended using the drums that had some type of cooking oil in them. I believe the other drums had soap in them. They obviously clean them up, but I'm sure there is still some residue left over.
Will vinegar or bleach work to make these drums usable? Is it worth the trouble?
They are cheap for the size ($20), so just curious if anyone else has used these, and if so, did you have any ill effects?
Thanks
