I use an old 48 quart cooler. Since I don't have any temperature control, I try to look at the expected overnight lows, and add enough warm water to bring the temperature of the water in the cooler high enough that it won't freeze over night. Then next morning, I have to go see how well I guessed, change out or add some water to thaw the ice. It's a pain, but I don't try to keep more than 2 dozen minnows overnight or for more than a couple days.
