The DŌS is a multi-purpose Dosing and Fluid Metering System.
The DŌS connects to any Apex via its AquaBus connection. The true
versatility and functionality of the DŌS comes to life via the software
wizards built into Apex Fusion. This takes dosing to a whole new level
in terms of ease of use as well as functionality when compared to
standalone dosing systems because the DŌS is part of your Apex
ecosystem. Not only can you integrate it into other operations and
devices you have configured, but we also will be continuing to expand on
its capabilities as time goes on via software updates to Apex Fusion.
The #1 reason people purchase a dosing system for their aquariums is
for consistent and easy dosing of 2-part solutions (calcium and
alkalinity) to their reef tanks. The DŌS wizards in Apex Fusion take
this to the next level by integrating a feedback loop from your water
testing to make suggestions to fine tune the amount you dose each day.
Simply put in your tank size and after a few days of entering testing
results, it will help you refine your dosing amounts for the demand of
your particular aquarium. No more guessing. No more fooling with the
timings.
Hate doing water changes? Everyone does - so they never get done as
often as they should. Not only that, water changes are disruptive to
the stability of your system since all of that change is happening at
once.
With the DŌS all you do is place your empty vessel and your
fresh stock of saltwater under your stand. Then, with the Apex Fusion
wizard just tell it amount of water you want to change over what length
of time and the hours of the day you want it to happen and it figures it
all out for you. It will perform an automatic, continuous water change
for you. It gets better. If you have our dual optical water sensing
accessory Apex Fusion will send you an email or text message letting you
know it is time to change out the jugs. Less time pumping, siphoning,
and sloshing water and more time enjoying a great aquarium.

DDR
This attractive fluid containment system stores your dosing fluids in style and even tells you when it's time to refill!
- Each side stores two liters (2L) of fluid
- Connects directly to your DŌS
- Optical sensors inform your APEX when levels are low
- Strong, cast-acrylic construction
- Low-profile won't easily tip over
- Easy to refill
- Push-fit tubing connections
- Use for 2-part (Alk/Cal), additives and other applications
Style Meets Function, Deceiving Capacity, No-tip design
The DDR has great style and will stand out in anyone's equipment room.
But it's not just about style. It may not look like it, but each side
of the reservoir holds an ample two liters (2000 mL) of fluid. For most
saltwater aquariums that are dosing Calcium and Alkalinity to their
aquariums, this amount is more than enough to last at least two weeks.
If you were dosing other additives it might last months before needing a
refill.
Speaking of refills, the DDR has easy lift off lids that make refilling it super easy.
The DDR was also designed to have a low center of gravity. This
means, unlike other reservoirs on the market, it is very difficult to
inadvertently tip over and ruin your day.
Optical Sensors Alert You When It's Time to Refill
The DDR is the only dosing container on the market that connects
electrically to your DŌS and uses optical sensors that alert you when
your fluid has approximately 20% remaining. This alert could be used to
send you a text or an email, or even trigger other events on your Apex.
Also, when detecting water level, optical sensors are far less likely
to fail than their float switch counterparts.
Connects Directly to your DŌS
One simple connection links the DDR to the DŌS. No worries about
fooling around with loose wires, float switches, etc. Just plug it in
and it will show up in your Apex Fusion Dashboard.
Ready for Apex Fusion
Although not required, the DDR interfaces directly into your Apex
Fusion dashboard. See in realtime your fluid levels and get an alarm
when a reservoir runs low.
