What is the “lid” that many reviewers recommend, is it obtainable via this cite & how much is it?

Usually available here and 40-50 bucks depending on the size. A must have. Yeti is the greatest. Get you some.

How long does the ice last in it?

Depends on how much and what you put in it. 12-24 hrs is a safe bet ... lasts longer if what you want to keep cold is already cold when ice is added. Also, get the lid .. def helps. Keep in mind that the icy water keep drinks cold too. We love our tank.

Does the tank 45 come with a drain plug ? Mine didn’t.

It sure does. You need one. I’d ask about it. Also, if you got the big tank consider the drain plug with hose attachment. The 85 get heavy when full this allows quick drainage anywhere you can attach a garden hose!
