I have two DOS and a DDR I was looking to hook up. I wanted to set the DOS for manual changes and the other for A/B solutions from the DDR.
The tank is a 32 Gallon Fluval Flex, which means it has a lid and a small back chamber for access during water changes, etc.
I had a couple questions:
1) The way these tanks are set up the water line sits only about an inch below the rim/lid of the tank - that is the height needed to have the in tank media baskets flow work properly. Can the water lines to/from the tank that come from/to the DOS units be submerged below the water line? Is there a siphon risk? If so how can I add a failsafe?
2) Are there any tips/considerations for how I should set up manual water changes? I plan to have the DOS flow into the tank above it (about 2-3 feet vertical height) and to/from some 5 gallon jerrycans that would be below the DOS.
