CoralVue 5 Gallon Mixing Jug with Lid

CoralVue 5 Gallon Heavy-Duty Mixing Jug with Lid

Managing fresh RO/DI water and mixing precise batches of saltwater are foundational tasks for successful reef aquarium upkeep. The CoralVue 5 Gallon Heavy-Duty Mixing Jug (SKU: CV-JUG5G) is a premium, professional-grade utility vessel designed to replace awkward orange hardware store buckets with a secure, highly accurate fluid management tool. Standard utility buckets are prone to bowing, lacks secure lids, and offer no accurate way to measure volume. This heavy-duty container is engineered specifically to meet the high standards of aquatic hobbyists and professional maintenance technicians alike.

Constructed from premium, food-grade high-density polyethylene (HDPE), this semi-translucent jug allows you to view the water level from across the room. Molded directly into the container's side panel are clear, easy-to-read graduated markers in both gallons and liters, making salt hydration calculations effortless and perfectly consistent. The top of the jug features a reinforced, integrated carrying handle that distributes weight perfectly when the jug is filled to its 5-gallon capacity. Additionally, the extra-wide threaded opening makes it easy to drop in standard small utility pumps or heaters to pre-mix and pre-heat your saltwater before carrying it to the display tank.

Built for Safety and Cleanliness

Equipped with a robust, gasket-sealed threaded lid, the CV-JUG5G prevents catastrophic splashes and slow leaks while in transit—saving your hardwood floors and carpet from highly corrosive marine saltwater. Its square, space-saving geometric footprint makes it incredibly easy to nest inside aquarium stands, slide into closets, or stack neatly during transport in service vehicles.

Note: This retail SKU contains (1) individual standalone CV-JUG5G 5-gallon container with (1) matching threaded gasket lid. Mixing pumps, tubing, and salt mixes are sold separately.
