Re: Fresh water cisterns. Concrete? Plastic? Fiberglass? Pro's/Cons?

My neighbor has a concrete tank and hates it because it leaks. I'm hoping ground saturation won't be as much as an issue since my house is on the top of a hill and I'd be burying the tank in the side of the hill, within 15 feet of my weeping tile..
The concrete cistern people advertise a pro to a concrete tank is that you don't have to prep the hole as much as if you were installing a plastic/fiberglass tank.
