Elos makes a nice unit as well, comes with a pump, hose & control. Just plug it in, set the sensor & you done.

I just installed a JBJ into my 165 gal & so far it's a good unit as well.

Don't know about best, but IMO, simple is better if you have the room to do it. By this I mean an elevated reservoir gravity feeding your sump/display through a simple mechanical float valve. Only a couple of failure modes & no electrical gizmos to break.

I got 2 Tunze ato and so far no issues, sensor is a bit sensitive, a bad angle can throw it off but it's easy enough to manage. My vote is for Tunze but mind you I have never tried the Elos unit.
