I am trying to decide between these 2. I have Apex system already. Leaning towards T11 because it has 3 pumps. Would like the integration with the apex. I can get the BM complete kit (pump, Mount, 3 reservoirs, and tube holder) for $360 or dos with apex reservoir package for $450.

Help me choose!!

Have a 110 gallon with 29 get sump.

I have the bubble magnus T01 3 head pump (I don't know what the difference is between the t01 and t11).
You would have a lot more flexibility with the dos I believe, it depends what you want to do with it....i.e....if you just want to dose at night, the programming for the bubble magnus doesn't provide for that....but as it retains its memory, you could set it to dose every hour, and then use the apex to just turn it on during the hours you want it to run (but that would affect all pump heads on the unit).
Being able to control the dos doser via apex programming would let you do a lot of different scheduling, and it has built in wizards..rate calculators etc.
You trade off a lot of flexibilty for one extra pump head.
That being said, the bubble magnus has enough flexibilty for anything I have wanted to do....except not enough pump heads...lol
