hello all,
I just set up a BRS 1.1 ML doser on my AIO. I have the line emptying into the return chamber. Within a few minutes of setting up the line turned from clear to white. Upon closer inspection it appears the alk solution was precipitating out in the line. It’s only occurring in the spot that the light hits. Is this a concern ?

I have the same problem with my pipets that I use for alk, I think it will be okay as long as it doesn't build up enough to cause a blockage.

Thanks for the reply. I will keep and eye on it. Interesting that it happens. I wonder if it’s from exposure to the radions
 
So I noticed the problem got less at night when the light was off. Really interesting.....
