Can anyone recommend a good type of solvent bottle, possibly air/gas tight, that can contain lines for sparging and flow for HPLCs. possible evaporation problem.

You shouldn't use an airtight bottle. Removal of the mobile phase will cause a partial vacuum as the bottle is emptied and probably cause flow problems. Alltech sells a pressurized system (pg. 611, Catalog #450) for use with helium sparging that works very well. A word of caution - when using pressurized systems be sure that an overpressure safety valve is incorporated into the apparatus.
