Well now the skimmer is working
![]() The little clear spinner washer was installed on top of the plate, instead of underneath. Either the manufacturer, or the member I bought it used from, put it above the plate and it wouldn't close the door enough Maybe it worked for the member with his sump level .... Anyway, I'm finally getting some NOG and can start dialing it in BTW, all that's in there is the base rock, so I guess 'tis dirty ![]() ![]() |

I finally got around to setting up this Tunze ATO 3155
I gotta tell ya, when I first walked away from it, I thought it was all good. I tested it by pulling water out with a jug, and then putting it back, and all was great. I went to the kitchen and started a conversation with the wife .... Not long after, the Hi alarm went off and we thought it was something on the TV I ran to the sump room and, after viewing the problem, I unplugged the power supply to the ATO. It had already dumped 1 gallon of RO into the sump !!!!!!!!! I then spent the next, say, 2 hours, setting it up and I think it's all good now. So, problem solved, at least overnight, and we'll deal with it tomorrow I had to add some salt and remove some water ...... My problem, I think, was the chaeto tank. For those of you that haven't been following along, it's above the sump on a separate pump. I watched when the chaeto tank level raised, and, of course, the sump level dropped. I never thought this would be enough to upset the ATO, but it did. The trick was to set the ATO to ignore all this, yet still work properly I ended up having to set the Optical sensor much higher than originally planned. It is now very close to the HI level float. Seems to work so far ... 3 hrs running and no stupid cycling I cannot post a good pic as the location of the mounts is tight Useless pic ..... ![]() Last edited by gregzz4; 05-11-2012 at 09:49 AM. |
