Frequently Asked Questions

The number one question we get asked all the time. It’s a bit tricky.. Yes and No. Yes, the metal does get hot to touch when there is no water inside but when your tank is filled and ready to enjoy, the metal is not hot. Makes Sense? The water in the tank will neutralize the tank’s exterior temperature. The water in a stock tank pool will vary in temperature based on sun exposure. For example: we live in a city that reaches 110 degrees in the summer and our tanks are in full sun all day and the highest our water temperature has reached is 85-88 degrees.

Don’t worry, we got you covered! Our Stock Tank Pool Packages include a high quality sand filter. Just like an above ground pool, a filter should run a few hours a day, a sanitizer to disinfect, skimmer to remove leaves, bugs, debris, a pool vacuum to pick up any fine dirt that settles at the bottom of your stock tank pool. Our pool cover is highly recommended to keep to keep it even cleaner. Let’s face it, no one wants a dirty tank, so add these items to your stock tank pool package and they will all be available to you once we arrive. Keep your tank happy and shiny. Its that easy!

Corrosion and Rust in livestock tanks are inevitable in galvanized tanks. They were manufactured for animals to drink from, therefore, they were not intended to have chemicals poured inside. But we are EXTRA and have turned them into chic pools for you to frolic in. You're welcome!

Corrosion is when the galvanization in a tank starts to get eaten away due to hard water or chemicals. The “shininess” of a tank will start to disappear and have a rough texture..

Rust happens due to a chemical reaction and will happen within days.

With a bit of care, they can last years. Here are a few tips and tricks to keep your tank as pretty as long as possible.

1. Use an inline filter to fill or refill a tank when needed. It’s “almost” like a water softener. The inline filter connects to a hose and provides a small barrier from chlorine and mineral deposits from city water to enter and attach to your tank’s walls. If you decide to go with chlorine, use a chlorine dispenser. Never throw a chlorine tablet directly into your tank or allow pieces of chlorine to settle.
2. We recommend to all of our customers to use 35% hydrogen peroxide. It’s not harsh as chlorine, it's safer for your plants and softer on your skin and best of all it doesn’t smell. Allow the hydrogen peroxide to dissolve a few hours before using.
3. Skim, vacuum and cover your tank. If your tank is not covered, skim and vacuum your tank often every 3 days or so. Allowing debris to settle at the bottom of your tank will also cause it to corrode faster.

If you ever had to drain your stock tank, we highly suggest purchasing a sump pump. It's the fastest and cleanest way to drain a tank.

Steps:

1. Purchase your sump pump at your local HD
2. Hook up your hose to your sump pump
3. Place the end of your hose where you want your water to drain
4. Submerge your pump and allow air bubbles to escape
5. Plug your sump pump to an outlet/ extension cord
6. DRAIN!

*If you pump is not sucking water, check for kinks in your hose.

We require your side yard and backyard to have a clear path from roof eaves, tree branches, trash cans, furniture, hanging lights, wires etc…

For example: If you ordered a 10x2ft tank, we require at least 11ft height clearance and 3ft wide entrance. Check your side gate/roof eave clearance.

We really hope this is not the case, however, if you do not have clearance, our team will assess the situation and decide whether they can get it safely to your backyard another way. If a safe alternative is not available, they will leave it on your front lawn/driveway.. At that point it will be your responsibility to get your tank to your backyard. We do not accept returns. A fee will be applied if our team has to return to install your filter.
