Bueller? Anyone? Bueller?

I just filled and started the cycle on my tank....and I already am getting tired of watching the level of water in the sump/having to top it up.

The "old" model is unavailable...and I don't want to buy the Neptune (average poor reviews).

Yeah, I'm on the same boat. I've set up a second tank, it just cycled and need an ATO for it.

I found an "old" (current 3155 model) Tunze ATO, but the retailer wants about 15% over MSRP for it. I haven't been able to find it anywhere else. I have been thinking about the Neptune solution, but would prefer to get the newer Tunze model, (or the current one at MSRP price).

I have some Neptune kit...so I was thinking about the ATO...but so many bad reviews.....

Wow this is really disappointing, why redesign a perfect system. Thankfully I have 3 and one tank so two backups which should last me a while

Doesn't do any good when you can't find the original or the new one. I have been hearing this for sometime now.

I’m really disappointed they got rid of the physical float-switch. The built-in redundant safety is one of the best parts of the osmolator. I wouldn’t mind a quieter pump on it though.

ya I just read that! I really can’t believe it, that was the best part of the osmolator. I hate the single point of failure that all others have.

And there is not another ato even in the same ballpark . Hope they don’t drip the ball or mine last forever haha

Hopefully roger will still repair the 3155

I finally gave in and purchased when BRS had the "old" model in stock. I read somewhere the new model won't be out until Spring next year. I'm not hauling water buckets to the tank for the next six months......

I'm pretty happy. Takes a while to get it "dialed" in...but now I'm happy I don't have to lug water to the tank every day

@Tunze Is the new model out yet…my pump is on its last leg.

 

[Reefahholic]

Actually my pump is broke. So yeah.

curious.. saw they were at reefstock in a video but didn’t listen closely. Guessing the new sensor housing will help prevent failure due to algae buildup.
