In this video, I add a well-needed auto top-off system to the Waterbox Peninsula Mini 15g. Without a lid on top of the Peninsula mini, it loses a lot of water and needs to constantly get refilled with fresh RO water. Adding this Auto Top of System to the Waterbox is really going to help stabilize the water salinity, PH, and temperature. This was a really fun build with some minor issues along the way, so please be sure to watch till the end and leave a comment if you found this interesting.
The Auto Top Off unit that I installed by Digital uses dual-stacked magnetic float switches to turn on and off the ATO return pump. The bottom float is the primary switch and the top float is only to stop the pump in case of the bottom switch fails or gets stuck. Only time will tell if this float switch is going to be reliable but I am pretty confident that it will not cause flooding.
If you would like access to the STL files for this pump leave a comment or send me a message at iSeaLive.com.
