<p class="MsoNormal">We have a teaching collection of fishes and have been using a large (5’) igloo cooler for large specimens. Recently it sprang a leak and flooded several rooms with isopropyl. The odor and safety issues got the attention of Facilities and
I now need to get serious about holding large critters. I would appreciate knowing some suppliers of the standard stainless steel specimen tanks (36”+) and if there are other less expensive, but reliable, options.<o:p></o:p></p>
