I'm starting to look for an ATO to get up and running before a vacation. My question is this, is there an ATO that can run two separate tanks with one controller? I've never used one and I'm not very familiar with them. I figure I would need two pumps. Anyone know of anything I could use?
 
You would need 2 different switches. The ATO works by reading the water level with either a pressure switch, optical switch, or float switch. You would need 2 of these for 2 different tanks. If you plumb the 2 tanks together using a single sump, you would only need 1.
