All reservoirs of the Aqualis series are equipped with a borosilicate glass tube. In contrast to acrylic glass, which is often used for tube reservoirs, borosilicate glass is extremely hard and scratch-resistant, features superb thermal and chemical resistance and a very low thermal expansion. The glass tube of the 100 ml and 150 ml variants has an outer diameter of 50 mm and a wall thickness of 5 mm. Base and top of the Aqualis reservoirs are made from Delrin and connected by a stainless steel rod. A deflector plate is installed above the return channel into the reservoir to effectively remove air from the water circuit.

The Aqualis XT variants feature an acrylic window in the base part and one LED (5 mm size) can be installed into the base part. Additionally, the XT variants feature an electronic fill level sensor with USB and Aquabus interface, a programmable alarm output and an external temperature sensor input. For monitoring and configuration, the Aquasuite software can be downloaded free of charge. In addition to the USB interface, the 4-pin Aquabus interface can be used to directly connect the fill level sensor to an Aquaero 5 or 6 controller (not included in delivery). The alarm output can be configured to be used as a rpm signal to be connected to a fan connector with fault detection (for example motherboard fan headers) or to be used as a switched output for example to connect a LED. Fill level and external temperature sensor input can be configured to raise an alarm. The external temperature sensor input is compatible with all Aqua Computer temperature sensors. Many reservoirs are also available with pump top adapters and pumps pre-installed.

Most variants are also available with a nano coating that will cause water to roll off the inner surface of the borosilicate glass tube.
