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 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

I think 2 pumps. a bunch of additives and a reef keeper lite.





Interested in the whole shebang?

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
