What kind of doser do u use?
 

Thinking of buying a doser for my sps tank and was wondering what kind everyone was useing and for how long?

I have been useing the Libra now for 3 months . easy to program and adjust . as well as doing a quick dose , you can tell it exactly how much to do a spot dose.

do my testing once a week and If i feel the doseing amounts need to change . i can change them in seconds . love it .

If you do decide to go for a Libra be for warned the DC model is very loud IMO.

I also have never heard anything bad about the GHL dosers and those can be found and really good prices

I use the BRS dosers and have for about 6 months now. Picked them up given their cheap cost packaged with bulk supplies, and for a relatively more inexpensive way to try dosing on a big system. So far I have no complains, they work well with my controller, the RKE. I use 4 dosers currently; Mg, Ca, dKH, and vodka or clam food.

Been running a GHL for 2.5 years now without any issues.

I use the BRS dosers. Easy to set up, inexpensive, quiet and reliable.

I've got no complaints.

Been running my GHL (slaved to my Prodilux) for 4 years now.

i would love it if the ghl doser allowed you to do a spot dose! standing there and holding the button down for a minute or more takes forever! well... a minute (sometimes more).

What's a spot dose?

I use a marine Color its a bubble magnus clone, works awesome! and parts are easy to get since its nearly identical to the bubble magnus

let's say you want to on-the-spot add say 60mL to make a larger adjustment to the reef.

GHL gets my vote. I like it so much that I now have two. :biggrin:

BRS dosers hooked up to an Apex.

I have feed D setup to do spot dosing.

If you have an Apex or Reefkeeper, you may as well get these kinds of dosers.

I currently use the state of the art manual doser:) Just part of the daily feeding looking over the tank routine. Thinking of buying a doser though cause it's a pain to portion dosing for someone looking after the house when we are on holidays.

I use the Drew's Dosers from BRS, but different from the BRS brand.

I've been using the GHL stand alone for about 4 years. Love it!

I'm stuck using an aqua medic quad. Someday I will save up more pennies and get something better, although to be honest it's working well for me despite the bad rep they have.

I use marine color from reefshops.com a Chinese online store
2 mods 7 pumps in total for $250 including shipping

Thanks for all the replies. I ended up just ordering a ghl sa3 from reef supply's

Great choice, there simply is no point paying a little less with a chinese unit, we dont even import the BM ones and we are the distributors.

It may look like a saving but in a year when the $250 unit is landfill the $399 GHL unit suddenly becomes quite appealing with its built proof German build and 2 year warranty ;)

Ya ray at reef supply's was great to deal with. I orderd it Friday at noon and it was here in Alberta ready for pickup Tuesday.

Thanks for the kind words!
