I have never seen a "large" clear box. Cambro makes some that are just a hair larger than 28 qts, but not large enough, IMO, for large Florida or Chain Kings.

It really depends on what subspecies you are keeping. I kept Speckled Kings in 28 qt. boxes and I believe that was fine. My largest Florida Kings I would not keep in 28 qt. boxes.
