I've decided to scrap my basement sump idea, on my 180 gallon Reef tank coming together.

However, to add water to cover evaporation, I need to pump from a basement reservoir to the tank, which is about 12' high.

I plan on using the Tunze 3155, which I've used with success on 2 current tanks, however, I'm wondering what kind of pump can be used with this Tunze ATO?

Anyone pump ATO water a far distance, in excess of what a typical ATO pump can do? Looking for pump ideas.

Spectrapure liter meter 3 will do it.
