SO question. On the "aquarium side" of the doser do you put he hoses in the water or above the water line?
 
Always above! Place it in an area with high flow/circulation. Normally, reefers place it above their return pump, but that may not be the best place for you if you don't have surface agitation. You need high flow for alkalinity. Make sure you are alternating your CAL/DKH so they don't negatively charge one another.

If you place it before your skimmer, you run the risk of wasting supplements.
