Need a new RELIABLE ato

[Parasite1971]

Well my $45.00 ATO from Amazon has failed for the third time to where the safety float has had to save the day. Done with this junk! I like having dual floats/sensors, but most of all I don't want a flood!

Been using a Tunze for 3 years. No issues.

I have this for 50.00 if you are up in the air ? new

I too run Tunze on both tanks with no issues, but have the above if you can use?

I have an AutoAqua Smart ATO and am about to order another one (and have been very pleased), but if you are willing to pay a premium then the Tunze may be the best in class.

Mine is a 5gl Trigger systems Ruby with BRS Dual control pump kit which they don.t sell anymore but I think they sell the pieces. The only problem I've had was my fault because I put one of the controllers upside down. It's been running for 2+yrs otherwise. The only other issue is ATO tank is to small need a 8" wide for space but everyone wants to much $ for them & I don't have the tools to make one. Can't find anyone in my area that works with acrylic either. Still looking for other options.

Tunze 3155

I run both IceCap and Tunze and never really a issue with either.
The only issue I have with Tunze is I have had to replace the pumps once in a while.

I you already have a controller, an AquaLifter and a couple float sensors are tough to beat for the simplicity and cost.

The nano?

The nano?

No sorry the 3155. Tunze is good quality and they stand by their products. Had a warranty issue with a couple of powerheads and they took care of me. If you think you'll upgrade in the future I'd consider the 3155 though.

Coral Box A-100, three years, no problems.
That being said, optical sensors do wear out after a year or so, and the optical sensor needs a snail guard.

Bought 3155 for redundant safety as flooding is my biggest fear especially since I'm in an apartment.
