I know that if you have ATO by Neptune there's a wizard you do to program it. I have the ultimate ATO and wanted it to turn off when I feed so it doesn't alarm when my water level raises in sump. So what's the best way to program none Neptune ATO

I have not used that ATO.
However if you have it plugged into an EB, you can cut it's power during a Feed cycle, and then give it power again either immediately when the feed cycle ends or some time later.
Just add this line to the ATO's outlet code:

If FeedA 000 Then OFF

Change the number 000 to something else if you want the ATO to stay off for a few minutes after the feed cycle ends.
 

Freshwater filter only or is it? Have you ever used an HOB filter on a saltwater tank?
