Yes, no problem, just check what they’ve been used for previously.

We’ve tried them even wrapped in black plastic and even painted them the water will start to form algae after a week but if your going to be topping up each week should be ok Thumbs Up

Put some fish in, they’ll eat it. But leave the lid off or they’ll suffocate

I have one I use when I empty my ornamental pond. It was made for just this situation as it is inside a big metal box. I don't remember the original contents, unfortunately.

I've used two for the last 8 years to collect rainwater, one in full sun one in full shade never had any problem.

SWMBO bought a cover made from the same stuff as covers for garden furniture. It's in full sun (well, what passes for it round here) and not gone green.
