Dosing Pumps

codemannc · 01/09/2012, 08:12 PM

I am in the planning stages of a 120-150 gallon build and I want to automate the system as much as possible. I am seeking currently some feedback because I do not use them on my 30 gallon nano system so any help would be appreciated.

i use two brs 2-part dosers from bulk reef supply for ca and alk. Only had them up for a week or so, but they are great. Instead of manually dosing once a day as before they dose 12 timse broken up throughout the day which so far has made everything way more stable.

I use two aqua house pumps to dose two part...I'm pleased with the way they work, and you can daisy chain them so it's one less outlet you have to worry about.

I have the Bubble Magus dosing pump, been using it for about a year and it's been great. Very reliable and accurate.

Really big fan of my GHL profilux doser. Never had any issues and tested accuracy is dead on the money. Plus, it looks sexy!!!!

Bubble magus and BRS 2 part. Will use channel 3 to dose vinegar and see how that goes.

Thanks guys for the input, I'll checkout the BRS and Bubble Magnus dosers.

Bubble Magus for me, too. I'm dosing B-ionic two part and just yesterday started using the third pump to dose vinegar. Mine's been working flawlessly for a year now.
