Is there a WiFI water level monitor? I forgot to plug my ATO back in before the weekend and came in today to a screeching return pump with no water to pump and increased salinity. Thankfully this was only over 2 days. It would be nice if there was something to tell me my water level is too low from a remote location. I know they have them for spills, but what something sensing a probe or sensor going dry, or float sensor used to measure a low level rather than a high level? This would alert someone of a from a water level dropping either from a failed ATO or maybe something worse like a leak.

Do you mean for hydros? Yes, you could. I have a water level sensor in the sump for the ATO, and another water level sensor in my 5 gallon ATO tank, to tell me when the water gets below the sensor. So I have 2 water level sensors connected to my hydros controller.

I was thinking of a standalone unit, but I can look into the Hydros.

If you type ‘water level sensor’ into Amazon you should get a few ideas for stand alone products, they have some different ones.
