Thinking about dosing pumps - recommendations?

[LeslieP]

I’ve finally switched over to dosing 2-part and am now considering putting dosing pumps for kalk and Ca on my Xmas list. However, I’m a low-tech reefer and don’t use a controller of any kind. What pump and set up do you recommend for my 125g? Thanks for your thoughts .

Jebao. Inexpensive and they just work. I've run them for over a year with flawless performance thus far.

Do these work off of a timer?

Do these work off of a timer?

Yup. They have a built in timer and are pretty much the best value in dosing pumps on the market.

What do you use for the reagent containers?

What do you use for the reagent containers?

You can use any sized liquid container with a lid and drill a hole the size of the tubing in the lid. Most people use gallon jugs. Or you can get a little fancier with something like this
