 a second set of cross-bodies spanning a length of the outer shell and intersecting the first set of cross-bodies; and 
   a water storage lid configured to be attached to the water storage unit;   wherein at least one of the first side or second side comprises a plurality of secondary openings, wherein each secondary opening is between an opening and a corner of the outer shell.   
     
     
         2 . The water storage system of  claim 1 , wherein the outer shell comprises:
 a third side comprising a third plurality of openings, wherein the third side is opposite the first side and the third plurality of openings are aligned with the first plurality of openings; and   a fourth side comprising a fourth plurality of openings, wherein the fourth side is opposite the second side and the fourth plurality of openings are aligned with the second plurality of openings.   
     
     
         3 . The water storage system of  claim 1 , wherein the water storage lid comprises a plurality of perforations. 
     
     
         4 . The water storage system of  claim 3 , wherein each of the plurality of perforations are hexagonally shaped. 
     
     
         5 . The water storage system of  claim 1 , wherein the water storage lid comprises a plurality of flaps configured to cover a portion of the outer shell. 
     
     
         6 . The water storage system of  claim 1 , wherein the water storage unit comprises a plurality of vertical pillars, the pillars supporting intersection points of the first and second sets of cross-bodies. 
     
     
         7 . The water storage system of  claim 6 , wherein each intersection point comprises a male connection mechanism. 
     
     
         8 . The water storage system of  claim 7 , wherein the male connection mechanism comprises a plurality of prongs. 
     
     
         9 . The water storage system of  claim 8 , wherein the male connection mechanism comprises four prongs. 
     
     
         10 . The water storage system of  claim 8 , wherein the lid comprises a plurality of female connection mechanisms. 
     
     
         11 . The water storage system of  claim 10 , wherein the female connection mechanisms are aligned with the male connection mechanisms. 
     
     
         12 . The water storage system of  claim 10 , wherein each of the female connection mechanisms comprises a plurality of slots, each slot being configured to receive a prong of a respective male connection mechanism. 
     
     
         13 . The water storage system of  claim 1 , wherein each of the first and second pluralities of openings is circular. 
     
     
         14 . The water storage system of  claim 13 , wherein each of the first and second pluralities of openings has a diameter of about 128 mm. 
     
     
         15 . The water storage system of  claim 1  comprises at least one flow restrictor configured to block an opening. 
     
     
         16 . The water storage system of  claim 15 , wherein the at least one flow restrictor is slotted. 
     
     
         17 . The water storage system of  claim 1  comprising a second water storage unit connected to a bottom of the first water storage unit. 
     
     
         18 . The water storage system of  claim 1 , wherein each of the first and second pluralities of openings comprise two openings.
