although, you can probably use RO water, have the rain fall as ATO.

I'm sure they do use RO water, I just wonder if water would splash outside the tank. looks cool though

Looks really cool but can think of other things to spend my money on. Still holding out on a controller and dosing pump....

"looks outside at the rain " , ya sure wish i had more of this ( sarcasm ) . Very cool though , fish would never notice but still cool.

Seems to me that a 2 minute rain shower like this would do jack sh*t for the ATO. It would probably have to run a lot longer than that.
