I'm looking for recommendations for a doser for adding 2 part. I have a small system (50 gallons) so I only add about 5-10mL of each part per day. So I need a doser that is capable of dosing in small quantities. Please help me find the right doser. Thanks in advance.

Bulk reef supply doser!!


I have 1.1 ml per minute it's very worth and slowly dripping.

Then you will need an appliance timer, digital type for each peri pump.

thanks, i was going to just test it but with the 2 part for the first time to make sure both are working correctly. I already checked the timers last night with a lamp.

yea you will need to prime the lines with two part anyway.. let it run for ten minutes after the lines prime, and if you have 11ml then you are good to go. usually two part is dosed in equal quantities so you may only need 1 timer... save you a couple bucks. but ymmv so do what works best for your system.
