Interesting read at the 6 month mark on an experiment between the two vessels:

I am thinking of trying these tanks

Always good to see an independent confirmation of what a company (Flextank) says how their product should perform or not. In this case, the performance seems to basically match what Flextank says.

I've been considering Flextank as well

Thanks for posting. That's a really interesting study. I have also been thinking about flextanks for long-term aging.
