Need help with an ATO!

[tprize]

So I will be gone for three weeks because of work, and I am leaving my tank to chance with my family. They have done a great job taking care of it to date so I have trust in them. I do however want to add an ATO so that they don't have to worry about running my pumps dry. The tank is a non drilled 40G breeder. The lowest point of the water is into the Bubble catch/overflow of my remora pro skimmer. What ATO system can fit into that overflow box? Also what pump would I use, because the bucket will be in the stand, and have to flow up to the tank. Thank for your help everyone. I am excited to hear what you have to say.

JBJ ATO with an Aqualifter / airline tubing.

use a tunze osmolator and put the optical sensor on the main tank not the skimmer overflow.

Out of curiosity why do you suggest putting it on the main tank? The skimmer pump will run dry before the tank really drops much at all.

Still waiting to hear a few more opinions on the subject.
