Red Sea ATO corner bracket - anyone??

[XLReefer525]

Anyone have a corner bracket and magnets they don't need? Please PM me if you do!

is it just the decide that holds the ATO tubing? Or holds the sensor? I ask because maybe you can DIY something that will work just as well

 

[XLReefer525]

It holds the sensor. I may have to DIY something. Just hoping someone has one they don't need, so I can keep it adjustable / moveable...

I'm thinking you could just buy some epoxy-coated magnets to use, or even use a suction cup with a small dab of super glue. This will keep it from moving, but also still allows you to pull it off and move it if needed.

I haven't figured out a way to have it be secure, and really hoping to find the bracket from someone who doesn't require it...

You can buy one on Fish Tanks Direct webpage. They are a certified RS distributor. I have purchased many RS replacement parts from them. They have what you’re looking for. I just checked.

Thank you I saw that. Unfortunately, they want $85 for the parts. Beyond insane.

Hey @XLReefer525 did you find a good alternative?

I have some epoxy-coated magnets and super glue... I am afraid I might ruin the sensor in some way lol Do you think super glue would hold long term?

Edit: i just glued a magnet to the bracket that holds the level sensor.

I wound up buying it from Fishtanksdirect. It wasn't as bad as I initially thought for the bracket and magnets ($55), but still stupid expensive. I just couldn't figure out anything else I could trust to work. Not the first time I've overpaid in this hobby and it won't be the last. But, it works perfect and doesn't appear it could fail...

Wait, do you only need this piece?

I thought I'd need the $30 magnets too.

 

[XLReefer525]

Yep, that piece is all you need. At least it was when I bought it. It was the corner bracket and magnets, and you don't need to drop that extra $30.
