ATO Reservoir

[azreef729]

What is the best compact 5-10g Ato reservoir on the market that can fit in a tank cabinet, are the ones for $100-200 all that’s out there, or is there something I’m missing that I can use?

I just used a basic 5g bucket for my ato!

That’s what I’m using currently, I have some room in my cabinet and want to clean the look up a little bit!

I bought 2 trigger blemished acrylic ATO containers, one 5g and one 10g. I only see A 10g available now but it might be worth watching. Still not as affordable as a bucket but the blemished items are usually pretty heavy discounted. I couldn't even find what was considered a blemish on either of mine.

Those are cool! I will email and see if they have any 5g. Thanks!

You can use model display cases from hobby lobby, depending on what size you're looking for. Might spend $15-25.

If you want something custom, it's pretty easy to build a DIY ATO out of 1/4" acrylic sheets from Amazon and Weld-on 14. I bought a 5 pack of 12x12" acrylic sheets for $30 and built one myself. Holds 7ish gallons or so.
