Hi guys,

Wanted some advice about setting up my new Apex Dos as an automatic water changer. My system is about 500lt (110G I think). I was doing 100-125lt change a month.
I was thinking of splitting that 125lt change over 30 days so doing 4lt a day with this system.

Is this how others would do it?

Thanks

Phil

I'm doing 1 gallon per day Monday thru Friday on my 100 gallon system.
Any amount you feel is fine.
I'm going small amount for the stability. It is still 20% per month which is more than I was doing before the DOS.
