    Question Can I use the MPR to hold the tube?

    Can I use the Neptune Magnetic Probe Rack to hold the tubes? The description says it is made for the probes. Thank you.

    Yes. You just have to be careful not to over or under tighten. You want it securely held but you don't want kinks. I had a little trouble finding that balance with the supplied tubing as it was too flexible, so I used the semi-rigid stuff from home depot that is between the stiffness of the supplied stuff and RO tubing and it worked like a charm.

    You might be an engineer if...You have no life and can prove it mathematically.

    I've also used the rigid stuff and works great for this. I do like an inch of the rigid on each line and then you can really crank the screw down to hold it in place.

    Where can I get that rigid tubing? I understand that it fits around the dosing tube and you put into the holder
