Nope, I have one on grow out rat tub that has 33 smalls in right now, and the 8oz lasts full day. There is a valve there as well, but they wont use it.

Yeah it may last a whole day or so but a 32 oz lasts a few days. Much easier with a big schedule :P

32oz is too small in my opinion:D
I like the 5 gallon size myself.:gj:

I've got the 8 oz bottles on the 1.3 and 1.4 bins and it's got to be filled once or TWICE a day. BUT that link offers 8 oz, 16 oz and 32 oz, all really good prices. Thanks so much for posting the link!
16 oz bottles are impossible to find locally. It's 32 oz or 8 oz. I bought a bunch of 32 oz and THEN discovered they will NOT fit on the rack. There's not enough space between bin and frame for the bottles, and when full, they either fall off the rack entirely or the tube doesn't reach into the wire. *slaps forehead*
So I had to return all the 32 oz bottles to all the stores, then rush to buy 8 oz bottles are Walmart. I'll be ordering some of the 16 oz off that link. At $2.50 each, it's a bargain from my online searching.
Thanks to everyone making suggestions!!

Compared to buying them in a store, that site is a steal on virtually everything on there. They also sell the cheapest auto watering system supplies I know of. ;)

Just checked out that site. They have the cap assemblies to fit 20 and 24 ounce pop bottles for .90 each. Way cheaper way to go. Think I will give those a try. I have the 32 ounce bottles from Walmart and hate the things. They leak like a sieve!! A 24 ounce bottle would do the trick tho.

20oz bottles are same as 2 liters and most 1 liters.

I have lab bottles, I'm very pleased with them personally. I bought them used for $2 ish each. No gaskets, no balls, no springs, nothing. Just plain and simple bottles, with metal caps. I love them.
