Recommendations for a new nano setup

[denis_anthony]

Hi guys. I’m starting a small IM15 AIO cube to scratch my itch of getting a tank while I find a larger setup that I want.

 

1. Does anyone have any recommendations for an ATO on a sumpless tank? I know I could do a gravity feed (they’re ugly but maybe I’m being a princess) but I’m curious what anyone else has done. I could top it off myself every day but I really am lazy.

2. The compartments in the back of the AIO tank don’t allow you to do too much so I’m curious what you guys would fill it with. I’m not sure if I’ll keep the socks or upgrade it to a fleece roller and I’m unsure what I’ll do in the other compartment….

Been running the auto aqua smart micro on my 25 lagoon and it's been pretty good. The led broke on the sensor about 2 years in, but the sensor still operates as normal, so no real complaints. Very very small and fits anywhere along the back.

Hello

 

I have IM AIO as well. Here is what I have been using:

1) https://reefbreeders.com/shop/reef-breeders-prism-ato/ been using this ATO for almost 2 years without any issue. Tip need to clean the sensor once a while

 

2) I am using skimmer but I have decided to stop using. I have a brand new IM media reactor I am thinking to get rid off. Never use it.

What do you use instead of a skimmer and media reactor? I’m curious to try their new fleece roller for nano tanks but I really don’t mind changing the filter floss from the media basket every few days for pennies..

Years ago, I used an Avast ATO with a shortened sensor tube in my Biocube. I used an old kitty litter pail to hold my tipoff water as it fit perfectly in the stand next to my small chiller.
