Looking for ideas for a nice looking DIY or cheap solution for a dosing reservoir for my "all for reef". Has anyone done something creative or found a small "tank" solution that works well for around 1L of fluid? I want to make sure the hose goes down to the bottom and stays there, right now I'm just sucking out of the bottle the all for reef comes in.
 
Voss water bottles. Plenty of youtube videos on using them for dosing containers. I plan on using mine for AFR dosing. You can find it at your local grocery store, Target and Walmart. The bottle is made of glass and the cap is plastic which makes it ideal to drill the cap. I like the glass bottle because it gives it some weight so it doesn't tip over so easily. I will be using the 800mL bottle


Edit. I just saw you are from Zeeland so the above stores would not apply to you. But you get the idea of the container
