Best doser
Ok so i have a Neptune dos kit. Issue is it only has two heads so I am now considering replacing it.
What doser can i get that will be compatible with my Apex and also be able to dose up to 5 fluids or even be expandable to more? Money isn't an issue so best bang for "my buck" isn't the question. |

None to be honest. Only thing you'll use as far as the apex and a doser, is the EB8 to plug it in.
Anything I can think of that has 5 heads is a standalone unit. Purely out of curiosity, why 5 pump heads? Unless your dosing zeovit or something I could see needing 4. ALK, CAL, MAG, and a carbon source(nopox, vinegar, vodka, etc). I have 5 heads on my KoreFifth, but only use 2.

I dose, ALK, MAG, CAL, VODKA, IRON, POHL'S - B-Balance, K-Balance, Amino Acids and Coral Vitalizer. All daily accept Aminos which i do every other day. I will only continue to dose Iodine manually every other day once i have a doser to do it all for me. |

I hope you can clearly see a difference when using it (I doubt it but..whatever) No way I could justify using that stuff.. I've used red sea aminos in the past for a bit just to try it out and couldn't tell the difference at all..

If you want to control the dosers with an apex BRS individual dosers work. The nice thing with them is if they fail you just replace one

Been using the GHL Doser 2 plus slave for about three years and it's been reliable. I personally find the web interface a bit cludgy, but otherwise a quality unit. While it's certainly convenient to have everything go through the apex, I'm a long believer in NOT having all eggs in one basket.
