Ato question

[josh88997766]

Can anybody recommend a good ato system that’s not too crazy price like 50 dollars even better if it doesn’t use any sensors (gravity fed and works on rimmed tank)

Ours is $90. They come with a 2 year warranty too.

I'm going to assume this is for a relatively small tank?

You might have to get your thinking up from the $50 range for anything that's worth while. I've tried some of the Amazon $50 ATO's largely on freshwater tanks, and I've had a lot of problems.

The Tunze 3155 I believe is the gold standard today, even with the new Tunze Osmolator 3, which I believe is less well received than its predecessor.

@VintageReefer what do you use on your nano that you suggest, I know it's a great value?

I use this one

It fills to the bottom sensor, and has one slightly higher as a failsafe.

Since I bought it they came out with a more expensive one, it has some kind of inline controller. Don’t know what that would be needed for but here it is for consideration.

Iv been using this one on my nano since November and just bought another one for my new main. I love the conductivity sensors, and easily can mount them with the magnets. No regrets getting this style so far! Works perfect for my system
