I would not recommend storing a container with starsan in it.

I did and after about 2 weeks the SS had evaporated and there were "colonies" in evidence!

For long term/medium term storage use about a litre of water and 2 campden tablets. Never ever had a problem and the containers are always "sweet" (Ok rinse of the SO2 before taking a dep sniff)
