I found a great 96 gallon trash can at Lowes that I was considering using as a fish tank.

The trash is well constructed (square shaped about 2x2) and looks like it could support at least 50+ gallons of water. Is this a realistic solution for a back yard set up, or would the height of a trash can cause problems as a fish tank.

The cost of the trash can is $80, and is cheaper than a similar sized used fish tank on Craigslist.
