[QUOTE="ccm, post: 351498, member: 13447"] I've used it for four years now without a problem. Kept a half pound of minnows (shiners in our area) alive for a month then caught a mess of crappie with them. If you do a partial water change about once or twice a week they will stay alive for a long time. I bought an aquarium air pump and when I get in from fishing I just plug it in an connect the air hose. You really need a good bubble stone to keep bait alive, I bought a bubble donut by Metal Marine Products to really put out the air/oxygen that the delicate shiners need. I used a Frabill minnow cooler for years until the latch broke then I built this thing. I think it works better and it was a whole lot cheaper. The drain works really well for draining the waste away that builds up on the bottom of the tank. Also I treat the water too, I use Shad Keeper and Jungle Start Right. This combination keeps the bait frisky and healthy which is what the crappie really like! [/QUOTE]
