Does anyone know if there are any vendors that sell a no drill float valve or alternate solution? We use aquariums for water storage and will not drill them. We have (1) - 120G for tap, (1) - 120G for Caridina shrimp (mineralized RODI), (1) - 60G for tap, (2) 20G for salt, (1) 20G RODI and then a CADE ATO RODI that we would like to try and somewhat automate. If you have any other suggestions we’re all ears. Thanks.
 
RO and tap off of the RO input line.
 
I use standard rimmed aquariums for my storage tanks. My RODI has a float valve on the inlet from the filter just as you are intending. I have made lids for my tanks with a fixed section and removable portion. The fixed section is clamped to the tank with nylon screws and a nut plate, the float valve, tubes and cords are mounted through the fixed section.
