gena Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Thank you sir Yes I will soon,I'm waiting for some more water to evaporate out so I can show it working but not overfill it for the demo. Is the back of your tank solid black or just a smoked background? Just wondering how the sensor on the ATO can see through? 1 Quote Link to comment
pgrVII Posted January 16, 2016 Author Share Posted January 16, 2016 Is the back of your tank solid black or just a smoked background? Just wondering how the sensor on the ATO can see through?I believe it senses differently maybe it uses some kind of pressure sensing. I believe their site has an explanation. Mine is solid black.

pgrVII Posted January 16, 2016 Author Share Posted January 16, 2016 I think the eye in the water senses the drop? That's probably it,the little led probably illuminates the eye enough for it to detect or something in a blacked out aio sectiom Quote Link to comment

pgrVII Posted January 16, 2016 Author Share Posted January 16, 2016 Whats on the outside of the tank just a magnet? Yep just a magnet What's really amazing is how responsive the sensor is. Very quick and not alot of dripping going on. 1 Quote Link to comment
vlangel Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Wow Patrick, if I were ever to do an AIO reef tank I really like yours. You did a great job with the review and it looks like an efficient and excellant tank. I loved the shots in the tank where you could see how much depth the tank has. Your scape also maximizes that. It will be fun to watch how coral respond to everything as the tank matures. Good job. 1 Quote Link to comment

Yes I went with real basic and easy here, change floss as needed,replace chemipure every 5 months or since mines a bit overkill size,and water change every 2 weeks - to a month pending on the tanks needs after its worn in. Thank you for checking the video out too! Much appreciated. 2 Quote Link to comment

Don't worry you know I got some btas and the monster bubble coral to keep it real,that guy is a hoss. Quote Link to comment
teenyreef Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 I love that dragonette Have you named him or does he have to prove he will survive first? 1 Quote Link to comment
pgrVII Posted January 16, 2016 Author Share Posted January 16, 2016 I love that dragonette Have you named him or does he have to prove he will survive first? Nah I typically don't name fish. Just the two clowns really. The ruby I've actually had for about a year now. He's fat and happy eats anything I drop into the tank 4 Quote Link to comment

iHexBot Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Did you get the Reef Cleaners 25 gallon quick crew package or go with a different package size? The 25 gallon quick crew package seems like overkill for a 25 gallon tank...but most likely I am just crazy and paranoid... 1 Quote Link to comment
