I’ve recently bought a mini fridge on Facebook for a diy drilled a 1/4 hole and got a Rodi hose which fit perfectly and tight I felt no air coming out of the hole.

I see that ab+ is good for about a week out the fridge but will be dosing this daily

but on the phyto it has to be shaken up before each use what do you guys think? should I use the doser or just manually keep dosing

I was also thinking of making my own fish food or get brine shrimp pack and put it in Rodi water and dose it everyday. I would also use the reverse mode to put back in just so it doesn’t go bad. Or what do you guys think?

Reef energy is fine for about a month out of the fridge unless red sea changed their answer. I would not put the brine shrimp on the doser. Just dose phyto by hand

I would definitely dose the phyto with the doser since it setup. All you need is a cheap magnetic stirrer off Amazon and you are ready to go.
