LoL, I should clarify.. I was considering purchasing one from a friend (new setup), but just looking on the www.spectrapure.com website it looks pretty technical (remember I have minimal DIY ability).

The options I'm considering are:

a) Litermeter 3 for $240

b) Vario Doser (as below) $229

c) Reeffanatic Controller (as below)

What would you guys suggest?

How about a 26$ Kent float valve for top-off. Or the whole RO/DI auto shut-off kit at JL for 69$.

Kent float valve:

Auto-shut off:
http://www.jlaquatics.com/cgi-bin/sh...gno=ro-kpfvkit
(I just read closely and it says "Not recommended for level control in aquariums." But I know people who do this, but if the product says not to I wouldn't reccomend it.)

So, float valve is my choice. You have to have it gravity fed and a resivoir installed though. Depends what you're going for.
