I have an EK Bay Res Combo D5, can I take the pump off and use it with a cylindrical reservoir? Also, what else would I need, fittings etc for attaching the reservoir to the pump and the type of reservoir?

It's all new to me, as my old Thermaltake had drive bays that I could fit my combo in. Now I have a Fractal Design 7XL and want to do away with the bay reservoir and fit a nice cylindrical one properly.
 
For instance, a slightly aggressive filter shows 4 results for the search "D5" in the category "pump mounted reservoirs":


I think there may be more results if you just navigate to water cooling > components > reservoirs > pump mounted reservoirs
 
Ended up getting the Alphacool pump top and a Barrow Helix reservoir, was hoping the rest of my bits would arrive today, but am still waiting. Have had the Fractal Design 7XL for nearly 2 weeks and every time I think I have it all I find out I don't.

That barrow Res is what I'm going to get next
