ATO
Automatic Top Off Reservoir
One of the maintenance duties of owning an aquarium is tending to evaporation. Water evaporates on a consistently regular basis. The amount of evaporation will vary depending on the size of the aquarium and the exposure of the contained water to the surrounding open air. Larger aquariums have been known to lose as much as several gallons per day. In a marine aquarium the specific gravity, (Salt ratio) increases when evaporation occurs destabilizing the displays water quality. An ATO reservoir acts as a buffer by detecting and replenishing fresh water when your system reaches a pre-set water level. This can be extremely helpful when you skip a maintenance cycle because you may be away for a few days or just too busy.
Compare these Features;
- Constructed of true ¼” Cell Cast Acrylic with rounded edges for safety.
- Large top access opening
- Removable, reinforced, warp resistant access lid to prevent contamination and evaporation.
- Dual Slotted ports cut into the lid for vinyl pump hose.
- Vibration grommet to safely seal ancillary water pumps electric wire.
- Pre-drilled intake with bulk head and barbed drum valve allows easy hose hook up to refill the container without having to carry container when it is full with 50 lbs. of water.
- Pre-drilled to accommodate the secure mounting of an overhead utility shelf that will hold an air pump or dosing pump.- - (2) pre-drill access holes , with grommets and rigid tubing so the unit can be used as an air driven ATO or as a large dosing container.

Bacteria Enzyme Culture
*Use Kick Start Culture as a catalyst to bring about a biochemical reaction that will establish new aquarium filters.
*Also useful as treatment to balance ammonia spikes when adding new animals or after routine maintenance.
A single (.7oz.) packet will seed any size aquarium eco system.
Kick Start treatment packets contain billions of 100% natural active bacteria and enzymes to break down aquarium waste. By adding Kick Start®, you restore the delicate balance of beneficial bacteria and enzymes needed to help keep your aquarium biological filter system operating at full efficiency.
Simply place sieve packet in filter influent water, prior to filters primary bio media.
For best results; place packet in- overflow box, drip tray, or on top of primary bio media.

Carbon Insert Packets
(Pre-Filter In Line)
Activated carbon is recommended for use in all marine, fresh and brackish aquariums. Using activated carbon will remove Tannins to clear up the water and Phenols that will diminish fish odor.
Aqua-Link 2110 pre-filters and built-in aquarium weirs are uniquely designed with a particulate filter tray that provides an area for carbon insert packets. Being installed inline is most beneficial because maximum water contact is achieved and it provides extremely easy accessibility without shutting down or interrupting the flow in the filter system.
Each 4”x 3.5” packet contains 2.5 ounces of Activated Bituminous Coal pellets.
These packets are to be placed inline on the particulate tray under the foam filter pad in the outside pre-filter box.
Packets may be purchased in quantities of one, two or three. Free shipping to addresses in the continental United States .

Filter Foam
Additional Information
Aqua-Link ADP Foam is custom processed, chemical free for safe aquarium use.
Click here to read this important message.
Polyether foam is utilized by Aqua-Link for 2 principle purposes:
- Mechanical filtration (to filter out medium thru large particulates)
- Bio Media – Is an excellent substrate to cultivate “Anaerobic” bacteria when submersed in a wet dry filter. The low pore count (20 PPI) provides 3 functional advantages that will accelerate Nitrobacterium growth:
- a. Provides an extremely large surface area for bacteria to attach.
- b. Dissipates and reduces excessive oxygen from entering the media.
- c. The compactness will accomplish its functional goal, occupying only a small portion of the filter unit.
Our standard sizes are cut in dimensions that accommodate the many common applications utilized in aquarium filtration equipment.
However custom sizes can be made upon request.

Dual Micron Filter Sock
Kit Includes:
This Dual Micron filter sock Insert has been designed as an optional accessory to retrofit the Aqua-Link 2110-Long pre-filter. The dual leg design disperses water evenly and prevents the sock from blocking flow into the drain bulkhead.
The purpose is to enhance mechanical filtration before entering the biological wet dry chamber.
Filter socks are used for removing ultra fine particulates. Strategically installed in-line as a stage 3 filter after large particulates are filtered by the coarse mechanical filter pad so larger particulates do not clog the micron filter sock allowing longer intervals between sock cleaning maintenance.
Easily installs around existing mechanical filter pad support tray.
Quick, easy maintenance access allows installing or removing for cleaning without water flow interruption.
