    Use Typhoon ATO system or buy another from ATO.com?

    I'm not seeing the ATO description on the page you linked. I searched AWI for both Auto Top Off and Float Switch. If your referring to the ASOV, that's not a Auto Top Off switch. The ASOV will shut off the RODI unit based on back pressure caused by shuting off the product output. With out ASOV...

    Eco Tech Vortech pump Help

    Are they new pumps? I've had them for a couple of years now without the issues your describing. They have gone through a couple of design changes with the wet side.

    How soon can she...

    Some add a small piece of regular ol people food shrimp. There are also several types of "instant start" products on the market but I'm not sure of their effectiveness. Some also use damsel's but they are aggressive and most end up regretting using them for the cycle.

    High Alkalinity

    I'd bet on the test kit being bad. I read about the bad kits on RC. I had a new one and tested against the one I was using. New kit was bad. PA said they would replace it if I sent the shipping info. Been a couple months now. Guess I need to remind them.

I guess after the first couple of cycles you'll get a good feel of a time line for adding more. PH level change will probably...

    180g In-Wall Reef

    Some reefers are going to either bare bottom or shallow sand bed (SSB) in the display and a remote DSB either in the fuge or its own container. DSB's provide for good nitrate reduction along with macro algae. 2# per gallon LR is the rule of thumb but not necessarily a requirement in the display...
