I am trying to dose trace supplements with the four X10 pumps, and there are air bubbles in the lines. The volumes are not correct of course.
I am only trying to dose 2 times per week or so, so they are probably very slow leaks.
I have replaced the dosing heads, the tubing and removed any extra connection points, all with factory parts.
The dosing tube goes into the bottle (to the bottom, it's full too) directly into the pump and a second line connects to the pump and runs to the tank.
Any ideas for how to correct this? Is this just a normal amount of air leakagefor that kind of connection? Do i need to dilute the trace elements so the pumps run more frequently?
