Osmolator for kalk top up

maffs · 06/29/2004, 10:29 AM

I'm planning on adding kalk to my top up water that I have my Osmolater set up to. I want to avoid the pump sitting in the "slurry" at the bottom. Does anyone have any idea how to keep the pump up above the slurry (I'm guessing about 2 -3 inches off the bottom. Would be interested in any innovative ways of doing this.

Thanks,

Matthew.

If you have the Tunze reservoir you just put tension on the hose. Otherwise an eggcrate platform should work. Just beaware regardless of how you do it, pump life is shorter and not covered under warranty.
