Some of the really big rubbermaids can 'bow' out when filled all the way to the top with water for an extended period of time. I had a larger turtle in one for a while but stopped in fear that I was going to wake up with 60 gallons of water on the floor.
But they're fine filled halfway up, and I'm sure you're not even going to be doing that for a while. When the turt gets bigger they make things called 'stock tanks' which are plastic but are designed to hold water and are bigger and cheaper than even big glass aquariums.
I didn't mean to scare you, I just wanted to let you know the rubbermaid's limitations. Great set up for now, and think how much money you saved :P.
