Been thinking about using a 100g Rubbermaid stock tank to hold most of my liverock for my 480g build. A lot of reviews saying they crack and are no good but I'm sure most of them are using it for other purposes. Does anyone have any experience using it in this hobby if what do you think? Safe for long term or not?

Mine never cracked. I just replaced the stock bulkhead since the reviews on here stated they leaked. No issues whatsoever.

i'm running a 50gal and 100gal stock tank on my system and they work great. never heard of them cracking before, they are thick suckers. I agree to change out the bulkheads though.
