that's cool...thanks for sharing....
I actually noticed the "fragnets" that are mentioned in the little blurb just above...I was reading about these a couple of weeks ago and thought I might try to buy some while I'm in the US next month. They seem to be super handy!!

I ordered a bunch of the Level Loc Auto Top Off units.
They look really well made. I'll let you know when they come in.

i deleted my last postage ampage, you just bought a whole heap & i made the usual wise crack to the tune of whats on my mind! Not good for business! So carry on site sponsor, just make sure you make one fall off the back of the truck for a lonely & potentially auto top-offly devoided ozzie this planet has ever seen..lol

Hey V, that post didn't bother me. Having Anthony Calfo, author of several books on coral propagation and reef inhabitants, and Eric Borneman, a coral guru, using the device and reporting on it was an endorsement. No problem buddy.

I received the shipment of Level Loc auto top off units from GAP Products. The first thing I noticed is the quality construction. The Level Loc is not a flimsy unit like some on the market. It is built to last. There is little in the way of automated construction with this custom unit. Each one is literally hand made. The owner's of GAP Products are to be commended on designing what appears to be a well thought out, sturdy, precise instrument.

The Level Loc has two methods of water shut-off. The first is the float valve. As a back up, in case the float valve gets stuck, a low voltage solenoid valve will shut the unit off to avoid flooding.
It installs in just minutes (no tools necessary), easily adjustable to meet your required water level, and can be used with an RO/DI unit or gravity feed.
It's not cheap at $96.95 but, quality never is. You can get yours from The Cultured Reef with free shipping, here Level Loc Auto Top Off (http://www.theculturedreef.com/level-loc.htm)
I need to "clean up" the sump area before I can install my Level Loc on the 135 system.
