DIY Auto Top Off (for tanks w/o sumps) anyone do this?

[FinzAquatics]

just like it says. im looking to make an auto top off system without having a sump. i was thinking of putting a 5 gallon bucket of RO in my stand and making some sort of automated pump to place water into my tank as it evaporates?

any input please

You can get anything from DIY parts and diagrams to the JBJ ATO at http://www.aquahub.com/store/doityourself.html . Usually I like to DIY but in this case I just got the JBJ ATO. Works well with an aqualifter pump.
