I was thinking of using just a 5 gallon bucket for my ATO reservoir but I am thinking the space it takes up being round I am sure there is a better fit some where. I found this...

This seems like a good idea and it holds 20 gallons but this is a little too big for my stand. So I am looking for something a little smaller. what do you think? what do you use? Some places I am looking says I cannot have a water level higher then the sump?

I also say go to Tyler. For similar cost he built me a custom 5 gallon ATO (because the dimensions of his standard 5 gallon ATO would not fit where I needed it) for just slightly more cost than the item in the link you sent.

i like my elite-aquatics ato res, because it wouldn't fit in my stand. it looks good enough that it can be next to the tank, plus it is much easier to fill when outside of the stand
