View Full Version : Minnow Tanks

Morning

I'm opening a B&T shop in Central KY in about 3-4 weeks.
I'm having one hell of a time locating a minnow tank for the
shop. I also need a cricket cage.

I've got a couple of catalogs coming in but they seem to
be taking forever.

I found a website in Canada but they won't answer email
and when you call the phone is disconnected.

Anyone know of a dealer in their area that handles minnow tanks?

Thanks in advance
Bill

Call the farm bureau and ask about stock tanks. The aerator pumps can be
had through mail order. The big oval galvanized tanks would probably be
best.

http://www.thesolar.biz/Stock_Tanks.htm

Be aware that some of the plastic tanks need to be thoroughly cleaned before
use; they may contain oils and parting compounds toxic to minnows. (ditto
the galvanized, I suppose)

What's the name/number of the place you tried in Canada? I can look
into it from this end if it helps (I'm in Canada)

Thanks.

Heres the link
http://www.rodwayrefrigeration.com/minnow_chiller.htm

Phone number
1-800-665-0523 or 1-204-786-4881

I tried them again today. When I dial it I get an
operator saying that the 901 number I called has been changed.
(never dialed a 901 number)

Thanks. I found a place in SC that only wanted 160.00
for one but they did not know what a chiller was for the thing.
Or if one would fit on it.
Its more of a holding tank for the minnows than something
to be used in a bait shop

I also found one made by Living Stream but they want
close to 4500.00 for it. Was sure hoping it would not cost that
much.

Thanks for the advice. I'll make a few calls tomorrow down that
avenue.

why not use a water tank for livestock, they are cheap and can be picked up
at any farm supply... an arreator is no problem. you can find one in any
old junk washing machine..... and walla! a Hillbilly minnow tank!

Bill,

I just spoke with rodwayrefrigeration folks (their 800 number doesn't
work for me either - they said I am too far east), and my jaw dropped
when I asked the price for the LS-700, which he said is their standard tank.

$6998.00 Canadian dollars. That includes the charcoal filter plates etc..

He will ship to the USA, although I didn't as what carrier he uses.

Not sure why he didn't respond to your e-mail, but I confirmed that the
e-mail is still in use.

Hope this helps..

Thanks.
Price sounds about right. Finally found someone who had a number.
Had to call across the state for it though.
Turns out they are about 5K US.

I'll figure out something. The tank that hillbilly mentioned in another
post
would work fine if I could talk the bldg owner into it
:)

Thanks for everything folks. Yell if I can do anything fo you

Bill

I just called roadway refrigeration people (their 800 number, not for me either - they said I was too far east), I was stunned, when I asked the price of the LS-700, he said that their standard tanks.

I just batten with rodwayrefrigeration association (their 800 amount doesn't work for me either - they said I am too far east), and my jaw dropped when I asked the amount for the LS-700, which he said is their accepted tank.
