I recently purchsed a used hydros setup. It comes with a x4, 2 temp probes, 3 wifi power strips, pH probe, water level and skimmer level sensors, wifi fish feeder and a few other items. It should arrive on Saturday.

My tunze ato has stopped working (power converter issue) and getting the hydros setup as an ato is my top priority. Can I use my existing tunze pump connected to the x4 somehow?

This is the pump I have:

Agree to have a look at the hydros ATO, i've had mine for a year now, no issue's at all.

I use a Hydros dosing pump as the ATO pump on my Hydros. They also have a small ATO pump that works on the drive ports like the dosing pump.
 
The tunze pump won’t work with the hydros x4 drive port. It draws alittle too much power at startup than hydros is rated for.

Thank you all. I was hoping to get by with the tunze pump for now. I will order a hydros dc pump and fix the power supply on the tunze and give it to my son.
