I have a question for those who own Apex and the Apex Dos system. I’m looking into investing in both of them but have a question.

Can you program your the Apex to automatically add Ca, Ak, and Mg based on what the Apex sensors are reading. I.E. if I want my Ca to be 450 can I set that mark somewhere in the programing for the Apex and then if the sensor register a drop in Ca the Apex will automatically to talk to the DOS system and slowly add the Ca till the sensors register 450 and then shut it back off?
 
No you can't do that with Apex. There is a new system that can dose alkalinity based on results from testing the alkalinity level. There are no sensors that test for calcium or magnesium, so that has to be calculated from a test, then programmed into Apex.
