Bait Tank

Frequently asked questions

Can the bait tank be used for salt water and fresh water?

Yes! Tanks are made from durable fiberglass that is compatible with salt water and freshwater tanks. Note: the LidMAX accessory is not recommended for saltwater use.

How much bait can be put inside the tank?

PCT tanks come in 123, 195, and 267 gallon sizes. The amount of bait that will effectively fit inside each tank will depend on the type of bait used. We suggest that you check with your bait dealer for specific recommendations.

Can the FilterMax pull water from a marina/ lake?

Our FilterMax system is designed to be a closed-circuit system and the pump is not designed to pull water directly from an external source.

What is needed for required maintenance?

Our bait tanks require very little maintenance! We do recommend rinsing off the media pads and velcro bags in order to extend the life of the materials and increase the time needed between replacements. How often they need to be rinsed will depend on the amount of bait and waste in the water. When replacing carbon, we recommend rinsing the carbon with clean water before adding it to your velcro bag to remove any carbon dust that may be present.

Can the tanks be purchased with only the accessories I choose instead of the entire package?

Tanks can be purchased a la carte with the options that meet your needs. The only exception to this is the ChillerMax cannot be purchased without the FilterMax.
