Mmmmmmm......gadgets.......good choice!......

BTW......I think your avatar needs to be bigger!.......Tony......Christy......can anyone make his avatar bigger?:mrgreen:!

lol everyone seems to love the new avatar:)

Fishy are you still running the quietone return?
Recommend it ?

Yup still using it.....three years for me and I got it used, so I can't complain ....it's probably the noisiest part of my system but I've got herbie overflows and a really quiet skimmer....

I would llike the new avatar better if it was MUCH LARGER!!!! or if you just sent me a copy of it in full size. :biggrin:

Nice, I've been contemplating this one or the Eheim 1262

in my mind you cannot go wrong with eheim. those pump go forever it seems. pretty quiet in my opinion too. Im trying out one of the tunze silence pumps but if that doest go as planned back to a 1262

+1 on the Tunze silence. I replaced a quiet one with a tunze and am thrilled with the difference in noise levels.

Quiet one's were hit and miss for me. I had 1 quit completely, and a couple others that became intermittent. The only one that lasted was horrendously loud.

I'll have to research the tunze as well.

In the meantime,
I was waiting for my BRS order and was wondering why it was taking so long.
Turns out the package was sitting on the side of the house. The delivery guy decided to hide it on me lol.
Either way I still get excited like a little kid when new toys arrive.

I am hoping to get some auto top off suggestions from folks.

I need something simple and most importantly flood proof.

The tank will be a standalone system next to the sump and will just be filled weekly hopefully.

I will have an apex controller that can control / monitor it.
I am not opposed to buying additional equipment to make the system as safe as possible.
Any recommendations would be appreciated.

tunze osmolator.....optical sensor and mechanical safety.....by far has the smallest percentage of complaints.....
