Cool set up mine is way more ghetto lol. Im not sure what kind of rubbermaid container that is but I was getting phosphates from one of there roughneck containers. It was leaching a little over 1.0 on my hanna checker.
 
where did you get the quick connect with nut? I have one but I can't find the nylon nut to go in it. I've been looking for a while.
