So I am proud to say, after 3 longs years of manually adding 5 gallons of water daily to my 350 gallon I have finally setup an ATO for it. In my case, it is plumbed directly to my rodi, but is complete with the whole 9 yards in terms of back ups and redundancies as well as been designed in a way to pre flush the membrane prior to actual filling.

Now that it’s completed I sit here and really ask myself why have waited so long to set this all up lol. Any one else been severely procrastinating on tank projects now or in the past. How long did it finally take you to complete or how longhas been already stalling for
 
Yess I’m taking awhile to setup my 48 gallon , i feel overwhelmed because i want everything to be perfect . It’s been 6 months and im just about to flood it with water in a couple of days
 
Congrats on you for doing a manual top off of water for that long! No way I could use a reef tank without an ato
