I've heard that GHL is a good brand. What would you recommend and maybe tell about bad experiences with certain brands to avoid.

Ghl is the most popular out of whats on the market. Sad to say i had it overdose my tank before, ive used bm,ghl,brs and noe the neptune dos. The bm and ghl both overdosed my tanks after years of use, brs still works and very reliable for a cheaper option. But your going to need timers and good at math. The dos is my favorite sofar as it takes a quick click online to adjust my dose. Havnt had it fail "yet" so well see. This is what happened to me, it doesnt mean ghl is a not good option because its one of the best in its class. People dont realize that a dosing pump is almost the number 1 poeve of equipment to not cheat/skimp on. It can crash your tank if you dont do the right research/prevention wether its cheap or expensive

Hi Todd, hope you and your family are doing well. Where did you get your IV drip syatem? Was it an inside hook up or did you order from a medical supplier?
They are readily available online at the common auction sites.
I also have them on hand :)

I've been using the GHL doser for two years without issue (the older version, not the II). It's been rock-solid for me. Just another opinion for what it's worth.

HEY TODD, SO WILL THE DRAW FROM A BOTTLE OR DO THEY HAVE TO HANG SOMEHOW LIKE AN IV BAG, ECT?
