DOS – Dosing and Fluid Metering System
The Neptune DOS Fluid Metering System is one of the smartest dosing pumps on the market. It will hook directly to your existing Neptune Apex or Apex Jr. giving you the ability to program both pumps independently for whatever kind of dosing your tank may need. The DOS pump includes two pump heads for the most common of two-part dosing, but it is not limited to just two part dosing. You can use it for automatic water changes once a week or even once a day, minor trace element additive dosing, liquid food dosing, or pretty much any other liquid your tank may need to be dosed in metered amounts.
You simply just hook the DOS Fluid Metering system to your Apex controller with the included AquaHub cable.

The DOS system works perfectly with my Apex Jr. I set up weekly water changes and it runs exactly as programmed. The two pump heads are useful for balancing pH and alkalinity. Easy to connect and the interface is straightforward.

I use it for dosing liquid food and trace elements. It’s reliable and maintains consistent dosing. The only minor issue is the AquaHub cable can be a bit tight when connecting, but it’s manageable.

Great addition to my aquarium setup. I automated my weekly water changes and it’s been running smoothly for over two months. The system is precise and doesn’t over-dose.
