DOS & DDR install at School

Pola0502ds · Feb 7, 2017

This weekend I am installing a DOS and DDR at my local elementary school that has a 120g reef tank, you can check out details and live video feed that is linked in my signature. I am very familiar with the APEX, I have installed a few now, but I have never installed these items before. Are there any tips, tricks, weirdness, or advice that you can offer that would help this process? Sometimes these things are nice to know going into a install to make life easier.

We are still looking for a dosing line holder and I will jerry rig something until we find something but has anyone ever made a DIY dosing line holder? If so i would like to see it so I can get some ideas.

Give me a idea of the "Dosing line Holders" post a drawing or something along that line please.

I use these for my dosing lines:

Good strong magnet, and the rubber grommets let you hang probes or dosing lines in the same hanger. Work really good.

DOS and DDR are pretty simple installs. Plug of the DOS, update firmware if necessary, plug up the DDR, prime and calibrate. then set your schedule. Easy peasy!
