![]() You could probably use an aqualifter or maxijet.

![]() Done that. The water continues to siphon from the reservoir into my tank after the power to the pump has been turned off.
Looking to trying a dosing pump to help alleviate the problem |

![]() Very easy, just need to add a siphon break... I use a maxijet and added a T connection.one tube going to your sump the other pointing up at the ceiling and Make sure the tubing going up is higher than the ato tank/reservoir . Alternatively if you use a aqualifter you don't need a siphon break as those will stop when power is cut out but to be safe run the hose higher than the ato res/ tank!

![]() I bought a dosing kit a while back that I have not hooked up yet.
I think 2 pumps. a bunch of additives and a reef keeper lite. Interested in the whole shebang?

I was using a maxi jet a couple years back but switched over to the aqualifter. I'm also using a solenoid valve with my aqualifter since water continues to be siphoned slowly when powered off. I want to loose the water valve solenoid power adapter......just too many wires. This is why I'm looking at using a 50ml dosing pump Quote:
Thanks but no thanks. I already have an Apex with an Apex doser. |

![]() Have you tried this yet? Put a T in line as Chris suggested, but run it back to the ATO above the waterline
