Glass aquarium for ATO reservoir

[Aquavaj]

Anyone used a glass tank for an ATO reservoir before? I currently have a 10gal acrylic one but on a 180gal DT it goes out in 2-3 days. Saw a tall cube (20x20x29) for sale and was thinking of picking it up for this purpose. Calculator says 50gal so it should last about 2 weeks.

Lots of people do Make a lid or buy one to prevent dust or unwanted stuff in the reservoir.

I do.
Most water containers are opaque and I wanted to be able to easily see the level it was sitting at. I added a lid to avoid evaporation and it has served me well for the past few years.

I use 5 gallon glass aquariums as my ATO reservoirs on 2 tanks.
