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.
