Can you tell us more about it? Is that 2 sensors? and a mount for the top of water line?
Here's a video about the HydroFill:

[video=youtube;DdDBF5Tf-Us]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DdDBF5Tf-Us[/video]

The HydroFill Controller uses water's conductive properties to complete a low-voltage circuit that causes a control relay to actuate and replenish aquarium water as it evaporates.

The sensors in the HydroFill ATO Controller use rare neodymium earth magnets for safe, stationary placement and simple out-of-the-box installation. Two chemically inert graphite electrodes are housed in each sensor for redundancy and consistent long-term performance in harsh marine environments. This departure from outdated float sensors offers greater accuracy and no-moving parts reliability.

The HydroFill Pump is the industry's first low-voltage air lift pump designed specifically for auto top-off controllers. The HydroFill is an external positive displacement diaphragm pump that can push up to 15 gallons of water per hour to a height of five feet. The self-priming pump is equipped with a built-in check valve to safeguard against back siphoning and is a smart alternative to submersible pumps, since diaphragm pumps can run dry and are thermally protected against heat build-up.

Wow really nice product. Thanks for the video.
You're welcome! Thanks for checking it out!!!

Yeah this makes me think about changing my ato.
We've been playing with it for a little while now but we're doing an official "lunch and learn" with Innovative Marine later this week so we're prepared for all your questions. :rockon:

The HydroFill controller is $198.99 w/ free shipping; the HydroFill pump is $98.99.

Wow. That's a lot more then I expected. All others I've seen are 100 or so. 300 is quite a bit for an ato. Look at the kalk king thing for 300 right now.
The nicer designed ATO's are over $200 already, for instance the Tunze. This seems to be upgraded in a few aspects hence the price.
