ATO recommendations
 
So my ATO has been acting up lately. Its beens been pumping fine for the most part but I have been getting lots of false readings and alarms. Then this morning I woke up to the stupid thing trying to flood my tank by pumping my ATO reservoir into my tank(pump was drawing air when I got up). Lucky for me its was just about empty and only got an extra gallon or so in my tank. So now I am in the market for a new ATO and was hoping to get some recommendations on what to get. Let me know whats worked for you. Thanks.

Been running the hydor one since it came out, no issues at all; optical sensor and the ability to use any pump you want.

Have been happy with my Tunze Osmolator. Can usually find these used.

Don't know about jbj but I was disappointed with my hydor Ato. I put the sensor it and It waits till the water hits the minimum then pushes it to max wich fluctuates about 3/4 th an inch. I wasn't expecting this as I had a tunze ato for a few days befor it broke and it always stayed exactly the same watter level

Not happy with my tunze. The pump is quite loud and the controller power connection is wonky. Have to wiggle it like an old nintendo game to get it to work if i unplug it.
