Like the title says, does anyone know of any single or double pumps that can be programmed to run in reverse to pull back into fridge? Other than the dos, as this system doesn’t have an apex. Also prefer not to spend that much on a two head dos pump.
 
If you have some experience in software development and basic electronics, you might want to try and DIY one, it should be pretty easy and the parts are readily available online.

The Hydros X10 when it is released will have 4 dosing pumps and I beleive they will pump both directions. The X10 is a controller though with built in dosing pumps.
 
My GHL doser does so I would imagine the smaller two head ones do. Finding one is another issue though.

Oooo! If that’s priced decently that be awesome! For an apex system it be lapmost 1k and I don’t really “need” a controller.
 
Ecotech versa can run backwards.
Bumping this thread because I'm also interested in dosing forward and backward. The Ecotech Versa can run backwards, however, only in manual mode. You can't set up a schedule to dose backwards. Unless someone knows of a way to do this?

The Hydros X10 pumps, Sole pump, Minnow pumps and Blenny pumps will work in both directions.
