I've had this ATO for only a few days now and it appears I've had nothing but trouble. The first night I had it it overflowed my entire tank only after having it installed for a few hours, and every day since I've been monitoring it only to have it fill 3x the amount as last time and set off the alarm each time. It's in the final section of my AIO return chamber, and the skimmer (that is producing relatively little micro-bubbles) is three chambers away. Definitely needing some advice here.

Is the top off hose output higher than any point of the water reservoir? If not, it can potentially create syphon that will drain the entire fresh water container into your tank.

Yes, it's about 4 feet higher.

When the alarm sets off, can you tell me what lights are flashing? Are the flickering or flashing?

I've had a slow blue and two slow reds, just flashing. I have double checked the micro-bubbles and cleaned the glass
