I've been seeing this on the FS Forum a bit, and wanted to see if people that have used them can chime in.
I have a small 5 gallon tank, and this winter I will be away form the tank for about 10 days (currently I manually top off the tank). I don't have anyone that can topoff for me, and I"m wary of having an ATO setup for the tank that would overflow.
My thinking is to get a doser than can does the 1/8 cup that I evap daily over a few minutes 10-30 minutes once per day and keep everything running smoothly for me.
Can anyone speak to their reliability. Grand scheme of things I only NEED it to work while I'm away, and can go back to manual dosing when I get home...but if it ends up working I"ll probably keep it going.
I'd much rather spend say $60 for something instead of $150+ for an ATO that could fail on my nano.
I appreciate all feedback!
Thanks!
