Best Tank Material for Chromic Acid Anodize

Hi, I was looking for some ideas for a chromic acid tank. its for an anodize line, and I would like to find something that would last 10-15 years.

I used a rotational molded PE tank, about 50 gal, with very good luck.
One plant that I worked in used a plain steel tank and hung panels of wire mesh glass in it to hold down the cathode area and used the tank as the cathode. This was about a 600 gal tank. It worked well for as long as I was there.
