Aquatainer Hose Connection

I have the sewer cap with garden hose connection that I use to dump into a 7 gallon 'blue' tank on wheels. To connect the two I use a washing machine hose which has the female connecter on both ends. This hose mates up to both the serew cap and to the 'vent' hole on the blue tank. Or I could get another sewer/garden hose cap and use it on the blue tank. Either way works. You just need to make sure the receiving tank can breath when fluids flow into it.

Like he said above get the sewer cap with the garden hose connector and make a short hose to use in the 7 gallon aqua tainer

Perfect...Thanks!

5 gallon buckets from Home Depot with lids are cheaper,stack better,and aren't mistaken for fresh water containers

I have a set of four 7 gal Aquatainers I carry in the back of our Chevy Avalanche when camping and use for collecting fresh potable water that I later pump into our trailer's fresh water holding tank ... to identify them as FW only I have white electrical tape wrapped around the handle of each tank. Rather than a heavy tote tank I also use a different set of Aquatainers for collecting grey, even macerated black water which I offload with my FloJet Waste Macerator Pump (a.k.a. Poop Cannon) ... handles for those are wrapped with red electrical tape so there's no way I can confuse one for the other. Been using this system for years, no issues at all. :B

And lots of others, google, Aquatainer then click the "image" tab and lots of good stuff turns up.

I drain into 3 gallon bucket with lid from the threaded hose bib thing on the termination cap. Bucket also doubles for other things, like putting out fire etc. Those Aquatainer's are pretty good as far as getting your money out of them.

Not exactly sure what kind of container that is. You can get a cap for your dump pipe that allows you to connect a regular garden hose. Hope that helps.
