'''Methane Tanks''' are cylindrical, pyramidical, and in [[Halo: Combat Evolved]], cones that curl-at-the-ended structures used by [[Covenant]] [[Unggoy]] (Grunts).<ref name="beer">''[[Halo: The Flood]]'', page 60</ref> They are moderately large and resemble small fuel tanks of modern trucks.<ref>[[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]]</ref> 

When the are really huge, they provide a place for the creatures to breathe their [[methane]] atmosphere outside of their suits. Thus, Grunts remove their suits when entering the huge methane filled tank, as they are not needed.<ref name="beer"/>

There is a main chamber for the Grunts to reside in and a smaller chamber in front where the Grunts can change into and out of their suits.<ref name="beer"/> These structures often have posted guards to prevent the creatures inside from being caught off guard.<ref>''[[Halo: The Flood]]'', page 61</ref>

When shot in Halo Wars, the tanks sometimes explode due to methane's high flammability.
