I have a two pump unit and I dosed Ca and DKH 24 times a day.....Mg is not needed near as often so I just manually dosed that.....I often thought of and have heard of people dosing a diluted phyto/ coral food type mixture through one pump......the lines are just air line so I just replace those when I think to and you can clean the pumps by running vinegar and water through them(same goes for any pump).....all you have to do to prevent back-siphoning is keep the pump outlets above the water line, no check valves needed..... well worth the coin IMO
