I’ve been going for a month now and had one crash so far (I think I let it go too long between harvest). Been using an old tractor supply fixture from when we had baby chicks and a Home Depot led bulb.
Thanks for the feedback guys! There will be no kalk going through the doser as it will bring fresh rodi water to the kalk stirrer and will drip out of there via gravity into the sump. Although I will be using the same reservoir as the ato, it will be independent from it so the amount of...
Question for APEX users, I have the trident and just recently bought a DOS (thanks again @brokereefer) along with an Avast Marine Kalk stirrer. Is it possible for the DOS to dose the kalkwasser based on trident testing? I’ve seen where you can really dial in and make the alk very stable with 2...
