[pelagic]

off topic, I finally finished the year long project, now it's time to get my tank back to normal. lol

Who is the ATS master in the club? lol I want something nice for my tank. can anyone help me to design one?
I'm really horrible building something. I will compensate for your time.

Thanks.

If I had the money I'd get one of these. They are so cool.

Synergy Reef Systems ATO - $185.00 : Synergy Reef Systems!, Laser Precision Acrylic!

But being a poor reefer, I just have a 5 gal. bucket with a hole in the lid and an aqualifter with a JBJ ATO.

I think you misread his post. He is looking to build an ATS (algae turf scrubber) not an auto top off.

Gmoney I think is the ATS master. I just built one recently out of a 13 gallon trash can and it seems to be working very well.

algaescrubber.net is a good place to go for ideas. they are basing the recomendations now off the amount of food you want to feed and not tank size.

If you are running bio pellets go with the cubes guidelines but if you are going with just a skimmer I recommend going with the tank size guidelines

And remember the longer the screen the faster turn over rate it will be. And longer screen meaning the length is the feed pipe were the screen goes the reason I'm saying this is because it take 35 gallons per hour per inch of screen length to size the pump for the screen so if you have a screen that is only 4 inches you will need a pump that's 140 GPH now if the screen is 10 inches now you will need a 350 GPH pump there for increasing turn over rate
