How would a 40,000L rainwater tank go?
If it was full, probably quite well - that much water would take a LONG time to heat up. However you might have issues with running the tank contents through your blocks (bio-growth, corrosion, etc.) so you might want some sort of water / water heat exchanger. Also, does the tank get solar gain? What is it's temp w/o PC cooling? If the tank was sitting in the sun long enough to heat up alot that might not be a good thing.
