Snail guard idea for ato

[pirate9182]

I'm in the planning stages of a 29 gallon. I'm not gonna be doing a sump and going to diy my ato I have done this before but only with a sump. Anyone have any ideas on a decent looking snail gaurd?

If an aio I can’t see you needing a snail guard, the sensor will likely be in the last chamber, any snails would have to get through a couple of chambers before getting to the sensor, I have an aio and never had a snail get to the sensor.

Not doing aio either just a regular 29 gallon my float switch will be right in the display part of the tank

You could also probably make one yourself out of a pill bottle or something similar.
