Auto top off

[b-ridge]

I'm looking for a auto top off. Nothing fancy or too expensive. I have a tunze osmulator that is approxiametely 3 years old. It has stopped working for some reason or another. I'm not a handyman so I have no idea what is wrong with it or how to fix it. It's not pumping water. Therefore I'm looking for something that I can get buy with for approxiametely a month until my reef angel parts come in. I will be in the Bronx tomorrow afternnon(going to max reefs). If anyone is close by or willing to meet there would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance

I have a JBJ ATO

Good with making your own? 12v Radio Shack relay, 2 float switches, an old 12v cellphone charger and a piece of acrylic will give you as good an ato as anything you'll buy online and it'll be just as safe with only 12v driving your switches.

If you need part numbers or diagrams send me a PM or post back here.

you can buy the pump alone for $24 from bulk reef, if thats whats wrong with it.

I'm not exactly sure what's wrong with it. I beleive its the pump. Or it might even be the control box thing

Bring it by (gives me a heads up first) and we can trouble shoot with one of mine im not using.

Thanks for the offer cmantis. I took the head unit apart and I noticed there was rust on what they call the motherboard or whatever it's called. I'm certain that's not a good thing and have no idea how it got rusted inside. Of course water had to get in somehow. I looked for replacement parts and haven't been able to find any.
With that said I am still looking for a cheap inexpensive ato to get me buy until my parts for my reef angel comes in
