So I've been trying to figure this out for a few hours now and it just doesn't add up in my head.

Parts: AM KR1000 CaRx, AM SP 3000, Co2 Bottle, Co2 Reg, bubble counter.

Went to Melevsreef to try and get a better understanding of set up and found this

Ok Sweet, got a general understanding of where hoses go into and come out of.

The problem is that my bubble counter looks like this

Is it just me or is there a bottom missing? no place on the reactor does it have a space where this would go into/onto.

Here's the directions that came with the reactor, I can make them out but it seems like there are pieces missing. Well just one, #10 T-Piece with connection for 4/6mm tube

Next issue, the reactor included a dosing pump. Why do I need a dosing pump? Where do I put it?
 
That is a drip counter not a bubble counter.... I am actually a little confused, not sure why they would have a drip counter if it does not even have a valve on it to speed up or slow down the effluent coming out..
 
Also what brand is this skimmer?
Edit - Nevermind I should read before I post! :tongue:
 
I actually need to delete this, but can't from my phone. Can someone close this thread?
