I know that feel! I got some good info from the guy that I got my ball from but it was tough going with a lot of other places. I have my guy in a setup very similar to yours, though I will say that I have mine in a regular steralite bin, works wonders and it is a massive space for him... 110 qts is a little less than 30 gallons US... and they are only $16.99 a pop (that includes the lid). Freaking love these things.
