Are there any problems using a plastic container marked sterilite. I looked on their web site and they make containers some for food and am wondering if anyone has any negative information about using these containers as to harming reef inhabitants. The web site did no mention the plastic being treated with anything. Thanks for the information.

Bob Betzel,
Is the container you are interested in clear or opaque?

Polywise-
It's clear. After posting I looked back at posts and saw that it was discussed in the past and people agreed that this material was not harmful though it could get brittle.
Thanks for the reply.

Bob Betzel,
They do get brittle over time. Depending on the size you are looking at, I would create some kind of support for the sides before using with water in it.
