Hello all which one do you use? I am looking for a dosing that is a 2 part that has ca, alk, and mg, without having to does anything else.

They are all going to have some magnesium. Each tank differs in its magnesium consumption, though, so some dosing might be necessary, whichever is chosen.

I used B-Ionic for years, and it was fine. Now, I use the DIY to save a bit of money. Both seem okay to me.

How do you dose the 2 part. Right now I am dumping it in everyday how could you automate it?

I dose by hand, but a dual-channel dosing pump or two dosing pumps would work.

I was lucky and got a few for $100 from a local reefer who scored on EBay, but they're usually much more expensive.
