My only concern with this: How much would it cost to build such a vessel? It would need to potentially have a great deal of pressure on the bottom of it, so maybe 6" Acrylic? How much does that stuff cost? Anyways, just a thought.

Would the purpose of this container be to hold water if the pump ever breaks a seal or the pipe from the closed loop breaks?
