For what it is worth, I intentionally keep my SG at 1.026.

I also second the auto top off. All you need is a small 5 gallon glass AGA tank, it is very compact and holds enough water to last a few days. I did this on my 65gallon, I had it next to my sump. With a 90 gallon tank, you should have room under your tank. If you don't I have seen people build a small shelf over the sump to hold the fresh water resivoir. (For my current tank I use a 35 gallon tub

)

You could use one of these...

It is for wrapping paper storage. I almost used one, but went a little more industrial. 15g barrel.
You could paint it with some Krylon to make the it more appealing to the wife...

'cuz when Momma's happy...
