hey everyone!

So I am having an evaporation problem! I have to top of my biocube at least once every 2 days. a lot of times ill wake up in the middle of the night and ill here the pump grinding becuase the water has evaporated out!! it is extremely annoying and I am going to be leaving for a couple of days for thankgiving

Does anyone have any suggestions for what I can do for an ATO?

thanks!
 
I use the JBJ ATO on my 29 BioCube.

I took out the false floors and use the InTank media basket. Therefore the water level in the return pump chamber is higher.
 
I use an elos osmocontroler on my 28 nano cube works great! I keep a small 2.5 gallon plastic container under the cabinet that the top off pump sits in.

I cant believe I never really thought about this. but I have plenty of room for a reservoir under the tank! and the stand has a hole in the back of it (its an older tv stand that held a big ol tube tv) so I could feed the lines through there. Alright perfect!
 
Yeah sounds like you have lots of room I found this container that's meant for pet food. I was able to drill holes through the lid on the back of the main lid (not shown) for the pump leaving the little poring lid in the front for easy refilling of the ATO reservoir.
