Just setup my Jebao DP-2 twin pump doser to dose Macro/Micro on alternate days (small tank 30ml of each/day) for high tech CO2/LED setup.
Initially, when programming it, I set it on manual by mistake......well at least it primed the pipes/pump and showed it worked !
I've got the unit sat under my tank with the 2 x small bottles a little lower. There was no way to put everything at the same level. I've purchased and fitted decent piping for peristaltic pumps and 2 good quality non-return valves for fluid as I'm not 100% sure how many rollers these pumps have so I didnt want any backflow.
Very easy to setup and programme - if you're not sure there's several YouTube videos.
Does anyone running peristaltic pumps bother with putting some sorts of clips on the small pipes to stop them possibly coming off eg. the non-return valves ? (worst case senario I don't suppose there's alot of liquid at risk here)
