    Question Apex pmup vs dose pump

    I want to set up for AWC.
    I saw the video on how to set up the apex doser to do water changes.
    But no video on how to set up the pmup pumps to do water changes.

    which one do you think is best for AWC usages?
    1. Doser pump
    2. Pmup pump

    Keeping mind the distances from the tank to water change.

    The PMUP is not designed for water changes nor is any submersible pump. Some have done it to try and save a bit of money but it is inaccurate, the code is incredibly complex and you need floats or opticals out the wazoo to do it properly.

    The DOS is set it and forget it and is designed specifically for AWC.

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