Do you keep up with regular maintenance on them? I think they get gummed up pretty quick with algae and/or snails. There was also someone in the classifieds with a bunch of Tunze parts, maybe he has a controller in his collection.

There are several ways of using the Apex for ATO. My program is here http://www.canreef.com/vbulletin/sho...light=apex+ato I'm not sure about using Tunze parts though, I just use a maxi jet and some eBay float switches.

Top off
I have been using an Avast pressure switch with the Apex and a breakout box for quite a while now with zero issues, no plugging or having to worry about anything growing on and possibly obstructing the float switch (damn tube snails). Only issue I had was the magnet is so strong that it can interfere with float switches so you have to watch where you place it.
