Dosing pumps

[spiderwoman]

You who dose 2 part etc to your reef tanks, what brand dosing pumps do you use? I'm finally getting to the point that regular water changes don't replenish the calcium/alk needed in the tank.
I have the 2 part kit ready to go and have mixed the calcium and alkalinity mixes last night
● One Gallon (7 pounds) of High Purity Anhydrous Calcium Chloride
● One Gallon( 7 pounds) of High Purity Zero Ammonia Magnesium Chloride
● One Gallon (7 pounds) of High purity Soda ash (Sodium Carbonate)
● One Gallon (8 pounds) of High Purity Magnesium Sulfate
● Three One gallon Jugs
● Two one once dispensers for the Jugs and one cap
● Two 100ml measuring cups
Instead of trying to dose all that (when needed) into the tank, I'm going to get a dosing pump that will take care of it.
What's ya use?

This is kinda my fault for not getting good timers but still a PIA. My power went out for 10 mins and one of the timers messed up and dosed for 11 hours straight. Did not lose anything but still a PIA. I would get something safer like the B-Ionic doser.

Sweet setup!!!!
I've got dibs on a used dosing system from one of our club members. I'm not sure yet what it is but he no longer uses the second one. I'll keep you posted on which one it is.

I recommend not using AquaMedic dosers. They only use a 2 point roller that tends to siphon or lose siphon. I like Drew's alot better
