I would drop whatever that Dazmode Protector fluid is and just use distilled and an antimicrobial/biocide instead. Shouldn't need it, but that's up to you.

You might want to add a couple feet to your tubing run...You'd be surprised how much you need and you certainly don't want to end up short and have to wait a few days just on extra tubing to ship....that is, unless you've already determined your total loop length and that is correct.
