Hey everyone, im currently in a weird moment in my life as I find myself graduating from my bachelor’s degree by the end of the year and thus moving away from my island of Puerto Rico and to the states when this happens to continue my studies in grad school. Im currently running a nano reef in a standard 20g long with a few corals that id rather not sell when I have to move away mostly LPS. The system is rather simple with just a Bubble Magnus QQ1, a hydor koralia 565, an AC-70 for running purigen and chemipure and one of those aquaknight Hipargero fixtures for lighting. As im home quite alot I usually just top off myself. I originally planned on selling all the livestock at the end of the year but seeing how attached I am to my current livestock my long time girlfriend offered to care for the aquarium until I am settled and I am able to ship the corals to myself or take them through TSA on a visit. As she doesnt really have much experience with any aquariums im looking for a reliable ato so that she only has to do water changes every other week and occasionally feed in the few months she will care for the tank. Ive seen a few options such as the smart micro ato, the tunze nano, the XP aqua duetto, the AVAST ato. Im asking which of all do you guys think is dependable enough to just set it and forget it without worry. A bonus would be for the ato to work on a bigger more permanent tank as I plan on reusing some equipment when I set up a system when I move. Thanks in advance for any recommendations!
