Apex ATO set up

[Cycleguy0623]

I have a 30 gal AIO tank and am trying to add the ATO to it. The problem is that I have no clue where to fit the sensors. The unit is really built for a sump which I don’t have added to this build quite yet. Dose anyone have any suggestions on how to get this to work till we upgrade tank or add a sump to this one?

With your current setup, you will want to add the sensor cluster in your return pump chamber (right beside the light mount in the second image). If you can't fit the float just temporarily remove it.

Thank you! That worked perfectly! Didn’t even think of removing the float.

If you wanted more space you can also just use the new optical sensors. They use a magnet. Pretty much the same that you have now but without the bracket.

Good idea there too. I have it working now but I may switch to the new sensor.
