Five gallons of custom made acrylic, lid included, \u003cstrong\u003ebuilt to slide inside Reef Casa stands\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eOur advice: this is the half people forget to buy\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn ATO without a reservoir is a pump with nothing to pump. People buy the system, hook it to whatever plastic bucket is lying around, then wonder why it looks like a job site under the tank.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnd remember: \u003cstrong\u003ean ATO doesn't get installed the night before you leave.\u003c\/strong\u003e You need to have watched it run while you were home. That goes for the reservoir too — you want to know how long 5 gallons lasts in your room \u003cem\u003ebefore\u003c\/em\u003e you go away for a week.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause the real job of an ATO isn't vacations. It's \u003cstrong\u003eholding your salinity and temperature steady every single day\u003c\/strong\u003e, and keeping your pump from running dry. You cannot top off once a week and expect a stable environment. \u003cstrong\u003eStability is the key\u003c\/strong\u003e to corals that don't merely survive — corals that grow, and hand you colours worth looking at.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat the manufacturer states\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCustom made acrylic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShips with its own custom made lid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned specifically to fit inside Reef Casa stands\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHolds 5 gallons of fresh water\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eDimensions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWidth: 6.5 in (165 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLength: 13.38 in (340 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeight: 12.92 in (330 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's a narrow, tall footprint rather than a square tub — that's what lets it tuck into a stand without eating all the room under your tank.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat's included\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 x 5 gallon ATO reservoir\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 x custom made lid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe lid isn't a detail: an open reservoir under a cabinet collects dust, and that dust ends up in your tank.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat goes with it\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/reef-casa-level-o-ato\"\u003eLevel-O Auto Top Off\u003c\/a\u003e — the system that pumps water from The Well into your tank.

It replaces what evaporates from your tank — and salt doesn't evaporate, it stays behind. Putting saltwater in would drive your salinity up without end.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Reef Casa","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47425054769323,"sku":"RC73070","price":149.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0513\/7108\/1899\/files\/Best-ato-reservoir-scaled.jpg?v=1784312779","url":"https:\/\/reefsolution.com\/en\/products\/reef-casa-the-well-ato-reservoir","provider":"Aquarium ReefSolution inc.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
