So I need to start a dosing plan and was wondering if anyone has had any success with the following products.

-Bulk Reef Supply's 2 part
-Seachem Reef Fusion 2 part
-Brightwell's Code A/B

I know there are a lot of people that swear by the BRS but I do not have a doser right now ad it is easier for me to just measure the mL from the bottle and go into the tank.

Let me know your thoughts and suggestions on these products, thanks.

BRS would by far be the cheapest and most equally effective route. You don't necessarily need dosers in order to dose the BRS 2 part. Find yourself a small measuring cup and you're good to go.

I use a BM1 doser with the BRS 2 part and it's working great for my tank,I've never used any other 2 part so I can't comment on the others

If you plan on keeping your tank for a while, and want to but more corals, get the BRS starter kit. You dont need dosing pumps, that is a luxury, not a necessity.

I just used the diy two part methods.

Our local reef club used to have the materials free in our frag swaps.

$25 bought 50 pounds of calcium chloride.
$30 or so 50 pounds of magnesium chloride.
baking soda and epsom salts from grocery and drig stores.
