Saltwater bin empty light is kind of hard to ignore, LOL. hopefully I now remember to refill and mix tomorrow as I'm calling it a night!
Success!

Wrong tubing
Wrong tubing
I have been searching for some tubing in other colors, only clear is available here. I ordered some from USplastics but in my haste I ordered some with a thicker wall. :headwallblue:

Will this cause any trouble with the Litermeter? It's still the same O.D. so I am hoping it will be ok.

That's what I was thinking. The only possible problem I see is it could cause too much back pressure on the pump.

It will slow the pump rate down, but that's what the calibrate function is for.

Not so cheap when shipped to Alaska.
Man they got you working on Sunday. That's just un-American
Thanks for the info. I may still shell out the cash for some new stuff though.

Scott works on the weekends because he's cool like that! We have distributors in Canada Shifster. They may have different colored tubing. Reef Supplies Canada is the name

So I am setting up an nice new water station in my garage to use this litermeter system. Now that I have made this nice new space I am starting to think "Why not add a Qt tank?"
So can I add a third pump to the litermeter and have my auto water changer follow a path of NSW>DT>QT>Drain?
This thread has been causing a whole lot of mission creep. :crazy1:

Should work fine, I'm doing that with a three head masterflex and it's been working great.

That would work perfect just make sure the QT comes after the DT dump

I would love to have my qt tank out there as for my fish room is small and really dont have the space for it
