Horse water troughs should be made of galvanized metal or heavy sunlight resistant plastic rated for outdoor use. Place the water troughs about chest height for the horse and locate them close to the water source and where you can drain them away from the paddock for cleaning. We place our 100 gallon tanks on concrete blocks (CMU) with marine grade plywood to add support and level the trough. Use enough blocks to support the weight.

What if your horse tips his water bucket over everyday What should you do?
Tipping over water and feed buckets are things that horses just do sometimes and it's up to us, the owners, to figure out how best to stop it. Horses drink A LOT of water, especially in the summertime. Without enough water, not only can the horse suffer from dehydration, impaction colic can occur, which is dangerous. So, do everything you can to make sure that your horse has plenty of clean water everyday. As for water in the stall, you can buy little metal hangers at Tractor Supply or other farm/equine supply store for about a dollar apiece. They are a simple design that have a hook to hang the water bucket and a rounded metal piece that loops over and protects the hook so the horse can't snag their lips or nose on it and cut themselves. A very simple and effective investment. For outside, use a water trough, not a bucket. You can get a 40 gallon water trough for about $30 or so. It's heavy enough that they can't tip it over. You can also use your imagination and get creative in order to save money. For instance, a 50 gallon barrel cut in half can serve as a water trough, just make sure that it's clean, not rusty and has no chemicals in it.
