So I am looking for my first dosing pump to go with my mixed reef xl 525 that I am currently running a Hydros X2 for Temp, Skimmer with sensor, Feeder, and two Orphek LED bars. I know I can configure a simple doser on a schedule with the x2 but it would be nice if we knew when CoralVue was going to release their dosing pump so I could use a pump port rather than a smart outlet port. They even have reference to a Hydros Simple Dosing Pump in the official support thread. Mostly just a rant as I will probably end up with something else the week before they officially announce something and I will be stuck with it till it dies hopefully years down the road.

That is a big-time drawback, thanks for the heads up.

Just posted in the below link, we'll see if Carlos responds back.

People were jerks when they missed released dates in the past so they won't do that anymore.

Hygger 4 head programmable from Amazon.
I am not familiar with that one. I have been using Intllab doser which are simple dosers and will run using the Hydros simple doser output and schedules. I have been using these even before I got the Hydros. Originally I was using the generic output with the scheduling on that output. I started using the simple doser output and scheduling with them. It has been working without any issues. They are hooked up to drive ports on the Hydros controllers.
