I have a question I’m currently dosing into where my return pump is but I’m noticing that the return pump isn’t sucking it all into the DT and some in in the bottom. I was thinking of dosing in middle of my sump do you think it will be a problem cause of my skimmer any ideas I’m welcome to hear

Best solution is to add a small powerhead in the return section just under the dosing lines. For me it servers two purposes, one, it breaks up whatever you're dosing, second, I use an auto feeder in my return section, so it pushes the food into the return pump.
The other place to put the lines is in the baffle between the skimmer and return section where the flow is more.

The baffle is that this part will the sponge not catch anything?
