Cafe', for those who use All for reef, and with a doser, how often do you clean the lines and how often to calibrate the dosage?

I'm using a kamoer pump, and I need to clean the lines about every 2 weeks and it starts to sway in amount dosed pretty quickly. Currently set to dose 10ml at 7 am and I checked it with the calibration cylinder and it's at 8.5 ml already and I cleaned it last week. This seems like a lot of work for something that's supposed to be easier....

1once per month. Vinegar rinse 50/50. Run both tubes in same cup. Let it run a few mins. Rinse with clean water. Calibrate after cleaning.

This is my tank (90lb German Shepherd to scale)! On day 7 of my cycle.
Sorry, the dog is very nice but we use bananas for scale here.
