Sweet! I've just recently finished building an acrylic Sump\Fuge and I didn't make the return chamber large enough so I am only able to leave the tank alone for 3 days max. I made this Auto top off last night and have bought myself an extra 5 days! And it cost me nothing!!!!! :mrgreen:

I guess it's my turn. For those of you who put paper towel into you're Remora to reduce noise. You can cut out a piece of plastic (I used a margarine container) using the bottom of the collection cup as a template and then glue air tubing to the outside. This can replace the weekely paper towel changes. Here's the link where I got the idea from.
