Space issues in my AIO

[Army_of_mantis_men]

Hello,
I bough Reefdose 4 today with the tube holder, but I cannot fit the tubeholder and ATO clip next to each other. The way I see it, I can either dose to the overflow/sock part of the AIO filter, or run the ATO there, but I don't think the latter would work with the sensor (if it's not being topped off in the same chamber). Or, I can alternatively lose the ATO clip and just attach the ato tube to the dosing tubeholder, and just stick it in, but I don't want to do that just yet. Do you guys have any opinion on this?

Are you able to move one of your dosing lines to the overflow and put the ATO line where the dosing line was? That way it keeps it in with the ATO sensor?

I'll give it a shot but I dont think I can do that, they're quite different in diameter.
I can always 3Dprint something custom, just thought I'll ask first, or maybe I'm missing out something

ATO outlet would've siphoned water out if you just stuck it in, which is a risk. The hose shouldn't be in water unless you have a backflow restrictor.

It happened to me recently when my return pump failed and the water rose in the return area where the ATO was at and one thing led to another.. well you get the drift
