ATO suggestions welcome!!!

Hey guys. I was needing to get an auto top off system for my 72 gallon bowfront system. Any suggestions?

Tunze. It's expensive, but VERY Very good. One of my best investments.

I ran the jbj for over a year without a problem before I tore down to upgrade tank.

so im pretty new to all this. i keep seeing all these sensors for sale(float switch?). where does your water come from?

yea. i went to the site. but since i dont know how an auto top off system really works i couldnt assemble one on their site.

If it for the sump get the sump kit with the dual floats

so where does the water come from?

You have a separate tank or container that holds rodi water to top off evaporation.

+1 on JBJ. No experience with others but I think they are probably all pretty solid too.

I use a Tunze Osmolator for my 40B and love it. I'm sure the others are very similar. I have the RO water in a 5 gallon pail next to the tank and the osmolator pump adds RO water to the tank when the water level drops below the sensor which is positioned at the water's surface in the display (no sump). I will never be without one again!

Is the Tunze safer than a float valve?

Avast marine. Works great

I use and really like the JBJ ATO. I also have a RKL that can ATO with float switches but I use the JBJ.

any of you guys have links to the ones you use?
