If you read on page one I use this system and it is the only system that will ever be setup on any tank I own.

Now I have to try and find a good reservoire that isnt too ugly LOL.... Or a way to get it set up in another room and run to the tank?
anyone have a large capacity thinner and taller kind of setup?
Also do you have a powerhead in there too to prevent stagnent water?
It looks like im loosing about 4 gallons a day.......... So it will have to hold a fair bit.

You have some horseshoes up your butt. I've seen systems like this fail quite a few times...a friend did this and lost his whole 300 gallon system. A top off is something I personally absolutely will never cheap out on, and I cheap out on a lot of stuff.
