I got a jebao dosing pump a month ago, seem do be doing well. I got the dosing pump under the stand and it doses straight to the DT. I’m dosing Ab+ and planning to dose phytoplankton. But it seem to not holding the siphon. The liquid seems to drop back down in the lining. So whenever it doses it not actually dosing cuz it just pushes the air back out. Any help or advice will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Ensuring all connections are air tight, would be my first move. Use tiny cable ties if necessary.

Reef nutrition killed mine, just to thick.
Maybe other less dense stuff would work.

Yes good point I did not consider some of the the really concentrated stuff like that. I use live home cultured phyto and it works fine for that.

Phytoplankton will jam it up.
I was gonna post this;

“You not concerned about the concentrated stuff in the tube going off, unless you’re dosing loads of it?”

But then reconsidered, after all, who knows what bacterial interactions are taking place, maybe a benefit, I suppose.
