Ato
I need a good ATO system for my 40 breeder. It will be hooked to a 5 gallon holding tank. I was looking at the autotopoff.com system, but I am not 100% sure. My main concern with all the systems is losing siphon on my display over flows and flooding my tank. Any suggestions on what to use.... I am not looking to spend 300-400$$ on this system. Would like to keep it under 100$.
Thanks TNT |

I bought the atotopoff.com dual sensor unit a while back and it works just fine. 70 bucks with the pump and shipping. I just leave the top off line a little above the surface of the water so that it does not siphon back to the reservoir.

I purchased the tunze osmolator last month and I don't know how I ever made it without it! Yes, it's more expensive (just under 200.00) but I feel it was worth the extra money. I did a ton of research before I bought this ATO and the positive reviews on it were what sold me.
