Horizontal float switch. Anyone use one?
Because I don't have a sump on my 20 gallon nano, I'll be putting a float switch into the main tank to run a top-off pump for Kalk. My tank is acrylic and is mostly closed on top not allowing a place to install a standard float switch.
So I'm planning to run a horizontal float switch like this: http://www.aquahub.com/store/product32.html Has anyone else used one like this? The surface of the water isn't extremely turbulent, but I'm worried about it switching off and on because of surface movement. |

I have a switch like that on my sump for topping off....
works well.. you have to watch out for snails or something that may climb on it and keep it in the down position.
