Ok, I have never setup an ATO, but as I am doing my reading, I hear people advise to have the ATO to run from a Reservoir instead of straight for the ROI unit. Now I have been thinking about this and can’t figure out why. I understand that by having ROI feed right into the sump through the ATO, you would not be using the ROI correctly since the run times will be really short. And I can also see that if your ROI unit fails, you would start dumping in unfiltered water right into the sump as well. Are these the only reasons?
My real concern is what happens if my ATO fails to shut off and it keeps filling up the sump into overflow. The reservoir won’t help me in this scenario, right? I mean, the ROI unit would just keep filling up the reservoir and the reservoir would keep filling up the sump. Am I missing something?
Thank you,

Not cheap! I have seen the "starter systems" with the controler, power strip, pH interface & probe, temp probe, level sensor, and PC interface & software for $699 new online. The packages go up in price from there adding additional probes (2nd pH, redox, salinity), interfaces (SMS, ethernet) and/or power strips. I looked around a bit before buying mine from Reefhut...

Sean, I take it you own a ACQ110 too? If not, which controller do you own?

How much is that bad boy (ACQ110)?

Wow, that comparison chart is great. Thank you.
Ok, I know its a dumb question, but I just don't know what it is, can someone tell me what an X10 device is? I thought it was a power strip but that would be a DC8, so what is an Xa0?
thank you,

That is pretty cool, but with the RKE starting at $500... yikes.

Hi Chrissy,
I sent you a pm last week and didn't hear back from you. But from Cherryl's story, sounds like she could you the fish more than I can.

Darn it!.......

For the amount of damage that crab has caused, I would cook him up and eat him. Kind of like corn fed cattle. Good feed for him, means good eats for you.

sweet! I like the idea.

Glass, there is no question. (Unless you are going so big you can't move it into your house).

sweetness........

man, that is sweet. I am trying to figuire out how to take advantage of that.

If things don't work out with Squid HC, give me a call, I would be interested in buying last of LR: 503-522-9626. No offense Squid HC, you are first in line. I am just back up.
Thanks,
Bill

Sweet! Congratulations to both of you, that is way easier then parting everything out.

Thank you everyone for the offers. Snowpunk was able to stop by and drop some off for me. 2 smaller stocks, but but I know it grows fast. Thanks Snowpunk! I hope those button polyps and wavy hands polyps work out for you.

Thank you for your replies. My girl will be thrilled. (clap) I too, have a hectic schedule and usually only have the weekends to come pick up. This weekend, I have late Saturday afternoon and Sunday is pretty wide open.
Beggers can't be choosers, but if I could avoid the drive to Oregon City, that would be nice. If not, no worries, a nice Sunday drive isn't too painful. Where are you located Pledosophy?
By any chance, is the Xenia owned by anyone the Stalk type? Again, begger's can't be choosers, but I have never owned the stalk version. (plotting)
Thanks much!

I know this stuff grows like weeds, but my girl wants to have some. Anyone have any they can spare? I could trade a furry green mushroom or 2 for it.
Thanks,
Bill
PS- I live in Tigard, so Portland area would be nice.

Beagles is good meat.
I worry more about people breeding than littlenano's dogs breeding.
