How do you Dose?

rdnyva · 03/21/2007, 06:27 AM

I've been dosing Randy's 2 part for a few months now. I see a definite improvement in my reef and especially in stablility. I dose 70ml every morning manually. How can I automate this process relatively inexpensively? I dose in the morning before I go to work and I know at some point Im going to be in a rush and forget or won't have time. I'm also concerned with weekend getaways and vacations. How do you all do your daily dosing. I've thoght about those hang on drip dosers but I don't think I trust them. Opinions/suggestions? Thanks

Switch to kalkwasser in your auto top off reservoir. This will provide top off water, calcium, and alkalinity all from a single pump and float switch. Can be diy'd for around $50.
