Ummm thats not the problem Nate ... sorry if i didnt mention clearly ..
i have filter floss in that chamber to polish water and because of that air is accumilating as a big clump rising up at one time causing the flow downwards to stop and activating the ato swich ..
it will be fine if i take off that filter floss and put it some where .. but i dont want airbubble raising and painting all around that chamber with salt. i guess i have to find some kind of lit for that chamber and take of the filter floss to second chamber and i should be fine ..
ill work on something to day
thanks for the suggestion though ...yea it occured to me that switch might g obad if it does it too often ..

can you put one of those little gate valves on the airline to control the flow? Howabout a wooden airstone for a finer stream? If your ATO is kicking on and off a lot you will have a problem with it eventually. My JBJ ATO gets stuck in a position where it thinks it is running the water and it isn't. I got a tunze ozmulator to solve the problem, but I still need to get a part to make that work with regular 120v. You should probably just get one of the little cheapo nano skimmers that run on an airstone to control that issue and maybe actually skim a little. Just some thoughts.
