Does what I have it for

Got this one to replace a 30 year old tank that leaked when developing. I use this when I am developing a single roll of 120 and works fine, except after pouring out the developer and pouring in the stop bath (I use water) then the fixer it leaks from the lid even that it is on correctly and tight. I use a e-tone developing roller machine unfortunately the tank leaks onto it. But then I guess all tanks leaks, as do my 4x5 and larger tank for doing 3 rolls of 120 at a time. So just beware it will leak.

Disappointing

After getting back into home developing two years ago, I decided to go with what I knew. But this tank is not what I remembered from school. LOADS of leaking, so I had to use the spin method rather than inversion for developing. No biggie. But, the chemicals take FOREVER to drain out. I've tried fussing with this tank so much and the chemicals take a full 10-15 seconds to drain. Huge pain that requires some compensating for developing times. Finally, after just two years of medium use, the reels are starting bind so badly that I can't get a full roll of film on them in broad daylight.

question

are these the reels with the wide loading tabs? or are they the very narrow loading tabs?
Asked by: Rita L.
I bought this last year and it came with the narrow loading tabs. They aren't difficult to get used to, though
