I've seen the blue and white used - I think 'they' make black 55 gallon drums too. If I make it, I'll take pix.
My livewell is made from a white, 55 gallon drum ( found the basic design online ) - works GREAT - and was free; 35 gallon capacity and very durable. I even made a directional flow with a pc of PVC pipe cut in 1/3 and 5200'd to inside of barrel - with 25 small 'nicks' on the edge that direct water flow. When needed, I place livewell on my i/o cover when fishing. Held in place with a heavy duty webbing/strap that is secured to the transom via thru bolted eye strap hardware. It is connected to a pump, overflow flows overboard via a 1 1/2" hose and keeps ( bunker/menhaden ) bait very HAPPY ! Also a little ghetto, but people always stop me and ask where I got it ?!
