I use straight air line tubing. On my dosers. I use the iPhone app all the time to adjust dosing amounts but I use an iPhone 7+. Maybe I need to do a video on how to use the app. As you touch different parts of the screen to do different things and then touch in a certain order to set values.
I'll give it a try on my Fire HD :(
Yea, I am sure it was user error, but I'm not sure I'll need to play with it from the phone.

Mine don't seem as loud. But hey cool that your using that for auto water changes (I think?)

Well I was right on top of the unit when I recorded this. Normally I sit 6 feet from the tank. An the tv is on or music is playing. Yes that doser was purchase to do water changes and ato work.
I have two other ones. Which do Balling dosing and the other does Coral snow and various other additives.

very cool. I am liking the doser thus far, but I think I found something that should be in the Control Center. HISTORY I want to see my history of dosing. If I had this, I would know how much I need to correct from my mishap with the iphone app. :(

I don't know how much memory the Doser 2 actually has. I know the Profilux has enough memory to handle a history as that is in the settings.

I have those [emoji3]
I almost pulled the trigger on Neptune systems dosing containers, but chocked on the price. So I went to online acrylic shop to buy 4" diameter acrylic tube and some small sheets. it all priced out to $20 in acrylic. I stopped shot when my wife showed me these on eBay. I did not need another DIY project. I'm happy and feel like I bought some time back for myself.

We have babies. Baby clown fish that is.
I spent about 40 minutes catching what I could. The rest will have to take their chances in the tank.

I can't count how many I gave a chance in their grow out tank.

I could not be happier with how things are progressing.

Lately around our house there has been much talk about circumnavigate the globe. So once again it appears that I must start planning a new way of life.

I won't be breaking this down until we have a solid plan. So check in often for not only updates on the tank, but also for news on this lifestyle change

Sad day coming up. When I return from India in a couple of weeks, I'll be putting the whole system up for sale.

We are getting closer to putting an offer on a catamaran.
