Looks amazing! I'm thinking of getting two APEX DOS, but the coralbox seems really great. I might just go that route.
Nice set-up!
Where do you get the check valves from?
Just curious are you getting any air bubbles in your dosing lines or did the check valves on both sides do the trick? I saw lots of complaints on this doser having issues with staying primed.
I am not seeing air in my lines, I have the output end submerged in my sump. The submerged lines are probably hard to see in the image. I had the extra check valves so I put them on the output lines, that may very well be helping keep the air out.
Most people were seeing issues on the output side not staying primed, the fluid appeared to drip out into your sump over time. Curious if it's the check valves or just keeping the lines submerged, interesting.
I've not had the pump setup for a week yet, it is something I am keeping an eye on. Testing DKH every other day and salinity. The Balling Method has the ability to raise salinity, so that is an easy one to keep an eye on. I didn't use the supplied check valves, I bought the valves I linked above from amazon and used those.
No .. I’ve primed them several times and they still come back .. my only thought is they are sucking air from somewhere .. I have my check valves on the ends of my outlets .. I thought this might help ..Is the air just from needing to prime the pump?

Yes !Is the air on the output line and the input line good? This is the issue I see recurring over and over with this dosing pump.
Oh you mean check valves !!Try buying those air one way valves like in this thread and see if that works? Silicone tubing might help as well!
