Anyone know where to get bottles for dosing?

I think THIS is what you are looking for, but they are kinda pricey. For a cheaper option, I just found the size/shape container I wanted from US Plastics, drilled a hole in the top, and stuck the dosing tube through. To keep it rigid and make sure the tube goes all the way to the bottom of the container, I just put the dosing tube through a stiff .5" or so piece of tube, which I cut to be a little smaller than the height of the container, if that makes sense.
I as going to suggest usplastics.com as well. They carry just about every sort of bottle and container imaginable. The only downside is they carry so much stuff that it can be a little hard to navigate their website. (Andy, PM me your address and I'll drop a cataloge in the mail, I have about 15 of them...)
Chiswick Plastics in Sudbury has lots of plastic bags, bottles etc. Don't know if they have ones you could use for dosing. Every pharmacy has them for distilled water. I think that they just throw them away and start a new one. The old ones have just had distilled water in them and are clean. Ask the pharmacist and tell him what you are going to do with them. You might get one free.

Thank you guys for the help. John, usplastics was the first place I went and I have used them many times. But the problem is exactly what you said...they have so much stuff it's difficult to navigate the site and their search function is terrible. I guess I will have to march through it!

work great and super thin.
same ones they sell on BulkReef for 10.99 each. Sometimes it pays to shop around.

Do you have paypal? I could send you some money and have you ship them if that works. I live in Boston so the hour drive is a little much. I appreciate the offer either way.
