Hello Everyone!

I have a 13.5 gallon reef fluval Evo tank, i was looking for a decent but not crazy expensive auto top off system, ive done some research but I couldn't find anything good. I was wondering if anyone has had experience with one or know a system which is good and decent?

Tunze Osmolator is the best ATO I've ever used and they do make a Nano version.

My AutoAqua ATO is awesome! I have the cheaper one that doesn’t have an alarm. Keeps the water level super precise. My other favorite is the Tsunami ATO by Eheim. Uses a simple barometric tube sensor thingy and is super reliable. Only reason I didn’t use it on my current tank is because it would fit properly

I use the AutoAqua Micro ATO on a few of my tanks but I think that it has been discontinued. You have me curious to look at the Tsunami!

I love the tsunami! The tech is super simple and knock on wood I have never seen one fail. I also like it better than the optical sensor ones because you don’t have to keep moving the sensor around after water changes

Smart ATO micro would be perfect. Way to easy to hook up and install.

I use the fzone from Amazon, honestly I have no real complaints. And it's on the cheaper side for a pretty nice looking top off. 16207446142795395323054058564041.jpg
