If you wire up 2 floats, one that is in water that controls whatever ATO you choose. Then the other, is a HIGH LEVEL that will shut it all down. Thje high level will NOT be in the water, so wont get salt creep or buildup. Will allways be ready and working. My ATO consists of a $20 Omron timer and 2 floats, all from ebay. Works great and never had a problem.

i have the one from BRS, and it works great, i also have it on a timer just incase, i would easily spend 200 bucks on a more expensive one, but tried to keep the cost down by buying this one. works great for me, the problem wasnt the ATO it was the drain it clogged, i really need a better pump like a QO6000 but i cant get one at the moment as in saving money, and needing a new computer for school in september. priorities i guess, thats what the wife says. hahah no kidding, im smart with my money too, thats why i spend it all on the tank

so im having some issues with micro bubbles, and im at the point where they are starting to annoy me, are there any quick fixes that people find in keeping the bubbles to a minimum. ive got my fuge flowing back into the skimmer section and have filterfloss between the glass dividers any other tricks or something i can do to help reduce the bubbles. also the water doesnt drop more than 1" over the last baffle and the intake of the pump is about 5" underwater. i will take a picture later so you understand my setup better.
edit- im also having a problem getting my surface to flow into the overflow, im getting alot of it just going around in circles to the point where i can clearly see it going around. ive redirect my outputs around but it doesnt seem to want to flow into the overflow, any ideas there would be helpful also.
