I like getting plastic 55 gallon barrels (for $5)and cutting them in half - lengthwise and using each half as a 25 gallon nursery for my dwarf crayfish and other small fish or fish fry. They create lots of surface area for the volume of water and also do well at growing water plants. I just put pond mud in the bottom, fill with water, plant and place where the tub gets sufficient sunlight. And as you can see from the math, I get a 25 gallon container for $2.50.
