I will be pumping ATO water up from my basement and looking to hear what pumps people are successfully using for this. I would also like to dose kalkwasser from down there as well to save room in the sump. Horizontal distance is minimal and my tank is on the first floor. Thanks!

Peristaltic. Brs makes a 50ml/min and a 1ml/min for each application. ATO and dosing. Or avast makes a nice product too but a bit more expensive.
