So I'm looking for a very slim ato tank but can't find anything small enough. Any ideas? I was even trying to look for smaller style skinny water jugs. Looking for dimensions 12T x 3w x 15L.

Or does anyone custom cut acrylic?

maybe check out clear acrylic canisters for flour et…maybe Target or similar …
other than that they do make a slim dedicated ATO reservoir…I just sold one, it was like 4” wide tho
…finding a 3” thing might with enough volume have to be difficult….maybe ULine or similar?

I have been looking for something like that or a pasta container. I had looked at uline at there f style jugs, closest is the 1 gallon, I just don't need 12. A 4w would work, but the 3" would fit perfect

That Red Sea “Reef Can” appears to be slim but I just spent a few minutes looking for dimensions…nada
That's what I really wanted but am shy I few inches in height in the cabinet.

I use this one on my 15 gallon, its 3" wide, 1.25 gallons. Its good for about 5 days in my home, so I have been looking for something slightly bigger.

That reefcan 18 looks great, I am just wondering if I can fit a pump through the opening, it looks a little small.

Got this 2 gallon from wally world. I think it should work? Height barely fits, but it was $7. Only question is will it hold water? Just bows weird when the top is off, filled with water.
