Hi everyone.

I am dosing the Redsea foundation supplements (500ml bottles) using the Redsea reefdose 4.

The issue I am having is a lot of leakage which is crystalizing on the outside of the bottles and hoses. I have the caps loose on the bottles as to avoid vacuming, which makes sense to me even though there are no instructions about this anywhere.

Just wonder if other people do the same with their caps and if anyone experiences leakage from the bottles because of this?

I have an algae reactor under my tank next to the doser which causes the cabinet to get quite warm so could be causing evaporation?

Thanks
