Could This Be The Best Auto Top Off Reservoir? Red Sea ReefCan

See what Red Sea has been up to! Today, Thomas is showing off Red Sea’s new ReefCan auto top off reservoirs. While they might not look like your standard ato reservoir, Red Sea has changed the reef tank top off game by having their reservoirs take up vertical space in your aquarium stand. Watch here for all the cool features!

$70 for a plastic jug is still a lot.

[@Pastronomer69]

Agree, it's a great solution but it's still a glorified milk jug. If it was maybe $40-50 that would be a very attractive price. Sadly it doesn't fit in my WB20 cabinet or I'd likely buy one anyway as there isn't anything else as practical or comparable.

[@landscapingspecialist]

It is, but I’ve purchased plastic fuel cans that are 1/4 the size and costing $25-$30. Also, it’s not a glorified milk jug. Much thicker and is uses HDPE. Not thin milk jug plastic. It will not cave in like a milk jug.

[@richtv1]

I still use the 7gal blue containers by Reliance. Costs about $15. Not thin plastic. I can see the benefit of a tall narrow reservoir but I'm ok with cube shape that's also FDA approved and bpa free.

[@jaredw3609]

Cheaper than buying acrylic

[@gregk-muth8566]

The cost of all this is why my tank is now fresh water

[@TheMusTV]

That’s wild pricing and I’ve used this with 5 gallon RO jugs from my LFS for like $10. Now I have a basement so have a 35 gallon drum with ATO. 35 gallon drum still only cost me $20 and I have it connected directly to my RO system to autofill it

[@Arborpress]

Would love to own one of these to save space. I bet if RedSea removed their $20 tacked on fee of “because it’s RedSea” and charged $40-50 (still high) they’d sell way more.

[@jr2bder4u]

I have the Red Sea Reefer 170 and have the Reef Can 40 and fits perfectly in the sump. Its top quality and yes it might be pricey but its worth it because Its out of sight.....No more filling the the stock ATO every 2 days, now I fill it every 9 days. I use the Tunze Nano and works great with it. I Refill the Reef Can using a small aquarium pump. Its a great design and is hard to find a stock ATO that fits under the RSR 170.

[@russellguyver7746]

Very expensive for a plastic jerry can. 20l plastic jerry cans are circa £30 on Amazon

[@NaturalAquaria]

If a 5 gal pail fits then even a jerry can is too expensive!

[@landscapingspecialist]

Yes. 5 gal bucket will work. I considered this. But good luck fitting a 5gal can where this ATO res will fit. That’s the reason it’s expensive. A lot goes into making these. And if they can’t make money on it, then we never get it. It’s that simple.

[@alexguitar841]

Thomas always gets a 👍

[@landscapingspecialist]

I have an 18L model and a Tunze nano ATO for my AIO. It works well for my use case.

[@kevindunn9958]

Had one for a 2 months now best thing I've bought xx

[@lovermansmith9082]

I just wish you could fit your hot little hand in there to clean . Otherwise great sizes . Just make the caps bigger 😊

[@swordsman111982]

Screw an ATO, i think I found my new Kalkwasser container.

[@TheSpunkmayer]

Will the duetto 2 pump fit?

[@mickromer6199]

I literally use a plactic cereal container for my nano 😂

[@ThomasBReef]

That works!

[@choobplaya]

but how do you fill them without removing them?

[@NaturalAquaria]

Funnel or tube with a pump in your RODI bin.

[@landscapingspecialist]

@@NaturalAquariathat’s what I do. Use a sicce nano pump and piece of 3/8” silicone tubing to transfer from RODI storage tank to the ATO tank. And having handles makes it very easy to carry and fill. Unlike its plexiglass counterparts. I recommend it highly.

[@lovermansmith9082]

& Their Thomas tough 😊

[@zulu09]

Brs showing their true colors with this video. $100 plastic jug ahhahah

[@samiej828]

Am from India .. and if i tell my family life I paid 100 dollars for a ato container .. she’s gonna sent me to mental asylum or divorce me for sure … 😂

[@ThomasBReef]

Oh boy, definitely don't look at the acrylic options!

[@valleyreef]

everyone is complaining about the high price, yes, but that it, you have it for as long as you’re in the hobby 🤷‍♂️

[@so_so_reef]

They're ridiculously overpriced considering the cost of regular jerry cans.

[@jtdr2023]

It could be the most expensive. When I can just get a five gallon bucket for five bucks. I like Red Sea but come on.

[@ThomasBReef]

If a bucket fits and you're happy to do a bit of DIY for the lid, than absolutely use one! This is one of the least expensive "purpose-built" ATO reservoirs, not the cheapest possible option.

[@rudy6222]

Facts

[@Carni_Vora]

Lol Fishshop TV is out in full swing. Most innovative product ever. A plastic jug with a hole for 99 bucks 😂😂 Literally can't make this shit up. Favorite part is when he drops the empty plastic thing..."It doesn't break"

[@danriver12345]

Hopefully you don’t ship the one you drop😂

[@AdamEwart]

There really is no justification, at all, for a company to charge this kind of money for a plastic drum. We're all struggling to make ends meet, and enjoy a hobby we love, and we stretch to afford some of the nicer pieces of tech where we can. But when a company has an opportunity to be realistic about the cost of something, but decide to charge four or five times what it's actually worth, it just shows where the priorities are. As much as I'd love to add one to my setup, no level of practicality or coolness can support this pricing structure.
