Thanks guys!
I'm trying to stay away from a doser for now - the whole purpose of this thread.

I want to put a doser on the tank, but there are other upgrades that are required before that. Like an ATO. I need one of those badly.
I have considered a Kalk reactor, but it is not much cheaper than a doser anyway. I think I will probably just stick to manual dosing, but I should get my butt in gear and figure out daily dosing. Sigh...
