I bought the tank over eBay... it was home made... 60 litre... stainless steel and tig welded... It is near brand new but it seems a bit dirty inside... That's why i need to steralize it b4 i use it for drinking water.

Plain old bleach kills (almost?) every germ or bug known to man.

And it's cheap...................

The added bonus is bleach tends to put a bit of a shine on stainless, removes all the stains. Wipe down a dirty sink with bleach on a scouring pad and you will see what I mean.
