Wow looking good, is the tank flush with the interior drywall?
You can easily use the Apex for ATO.
With auto water change its possible to accomplish this with 2 methods.
1. Using the apex with the DOS addons, basically you'd set it up to do continuous water changes of about 1g a day, removing water from the drain side of the sump while simultaneously adding the same amount of water to the return side.
2. Genesis water change system, look into that. It does water changes at about a gallon a minute. Can be programmed for single large changes or multiple small changes.

We use apex DOS for AWC, definitely is possible. I've heard great things about Genesis as well.

Yes Kinda the tank face butts up-to drywall, and the tank has about an inch all the way around with a bead of silicon around the edge to totally seal out the garage. you can see what im talking about up top

Its just a HD POE Camera Ive got a bunch outside, And Can view it right from my phone, theirs also an app - Super Powerful software can do almost anything, I have it slide up on my Tvs when some walks upto the front door all kinds off cool **** you can do. The software is called blue Iris. You could also go with a system that has the DVR included with 4 cams or something like that
