DIY Nano ATO

[AaronS]

Morning all,
I have been searching for a DIY ATO for my 10g JBJ cube, that does not cost a fortune.
I found several threads using a 3gph lifter pump, that is NLA. I was wondering what people were using instead?

I usually just add RODI every morning to my tank, but I am about to have to leave the tank for a week and I will not be able to have anyone add water to it for me.

Any help is appreciated

How much overall ATO water will be needed? I’ve seen some gravity feed from 2 liter bottle with float switch. May look online at that option.

Not much, it goes through less than 1 gallon a week. I don’t think I can attach a conventional float ATO because there is no sump or room in the rear section.
