auto top off

[texasfootball21]

Someone should post instructions, or Rob should put out a show on how to make an auto top off for a nano! I loved the one on the tube fuge and this would also be great.

if the nano has a sump, it would be the same set up as a large tank. if we are talking about a stand alone nano cube like Carmies, then i would think that a pressure switch would be the way to go with that.

And I just top off the old fashioned way, by pouring a liter or so of water into my nano everyday.

You can check out my 29gal journal, I have a few instructions on there.

This what we do in Australia Taken from Reefing the Australian Way

I have running my setup for 9 months without missing a beat. I just only now need to remember to fill the top off tank about once every week or two.

the innards of the Box


We use the instructions from the ATJ's Marine Aquarium Site - DIY - Auto Top-off II

The Peri Pump

The ones we are ordering are from Williamson Pumps in the UK and will self prime up to 5 metres and are capable of 10M head pressure.

I hope this helps
