ATO Ideas

I hate just putting in 2 gallons of water in my tank everyother day. If feel like it mixing like this will be rough when I have my coral in my tank. I need a good ATO setup. I have quite limited space is the problem I live in an apartment. I have room for a 5 gallon or so bucket next to the tank and I can run tubes between the stand and wall into sump. What is the best kit/diy to do this. I've seen a few on here but would like to know which would be my best bet. Thanks for the help.

 

what size is the tank?

 

Autotopoff.com under 60 bucks with dual floats or if you have the extra cash avast Marine ato is a great option also.
Orders a toms aqua lifter for the service pump..

Good luck to ya

 

TUNZE ATO system is what i use, it came with my reefpack 505

 

125dt 40 gal sump

 

2 gallons / (125+40 gallons) = 1.2% Salinity change. If you keep your water at NSW of 35 ppt its a max fluctuation of 35.4 or 34.6 not a real big change.

 

wow, not sure how you got those calculations, when i need some chemistry done with my tank ill surely pm you! lol

 

Very interesting good to know.

 

PS: I hate dumping it in too because if I forget I get microbubbles lol. ATO systems are not too tough to set up I have an extra if you are interested. (My primary is my ReefAngel)
