Two separate gaskets make them air tight. The outer rim of the bucket contains a gasket and snaps onto the rim of the bucket tight. It snaps on tight, and I mean TIGHT! It takes a tremendous amount of force to get them on, and once they are snapped on, you will not get them off. The bucket is then closed with a center that screws into the outer rim, much like a typical jar enclosure. There is a gasket around the inside of the center piece that forms a tight seal when screwed down. It's kind of funny, as people that are not familiar with these lids have trouble figuring out how to take the lid off. It forms such a good seal that you can't tell that the lid is 2 pieces. We have used them for 12 years and have had zero problem with evaporation. It's a cheap alternative to the steel tanks for things such as turtles, large frogs, and large snakes. Do you know of any problems from storing specimens long-term in plastic buckets?<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"'>Curtis<br><br>______________________________<br><br>Curtis J.
