In a bulk package of used aquarium equipment, I got myself a JBJ ATO that I am working on setting up.
Downloaded the manual, and watched the BRS video on set up.
What doesn't get explained is how much does the water level have to drop for it to kick in? The float has 0.5" of travel top to bottom. Seems like a pretty substantial amount of water if the float has to drop all the way. Or does it kick in as soon as it detects a drop in water level?
Having never used an ATO before, what is a good sized flow rate for a pump? My tank is only 55 gallons.
Suggestions for securing the tubing so it doesn't flop out of the tank?
