Thoughts on dosing containers

I don't see why you need 10 gallon containers. Rough math 1 gallon equals 4 L ( i know its actually 3.8). 5 gallons will be 20 L. You dose 150 mL of alk/day. That will be that will be roughly 7 days to dose 1 liter. That is 140 days of dosing. Your calcium will be roughly 80 days.

Why do you need 10 gallon containers?

Yes trust me im still looking but wanted to see if anyonr haf any diffrent suggestions. Might see if i can find some 10 gallon aquariums and then do two 5 gallon headpacks if i can get that all in there as the reefcans have height and not as much width

You could also look at 13 gallon trash cans. They are taller and narrow like the Reefcans are.

You can hydrate yourself then use the container that hydrates you as a dosing container AKA VOSS glass bottles.

He needs larger volume containers

If that is the case, you are dosing more than you say you are. You may need to calibrate your pump.

2000mls at 233mls per day is more than 8 days.
