I'm not getting rid of this reactor, it works great and keeps my tank nice and stable.
So to repeat the question, does anyone know where I can find a peristaltic pump around Vancouver? Or do you think I'd have to order one from somewhere else? Please keep in mind when responding that I don't wish to get rid of my reactor. I have been using it for a long time, and it has worked for me thus far, I am simply looking for a dosing pump in order to keep my drip rate constant.

Check oceanic coral. They have the BRS doser that does 1.1ml/min. You can find others that you can customize such as RPM and tube size in order to get the drip rate you are looking for.
Keep in mind, that i think a doser pump is only meant to be ran for a few min a day. Don't know how long they'll last if ran 24/7.

BRS has their black friday sales on right now and the peristaltic dosers are super cheap (like $70 I think?). In Vancouver I'd say JL and Oceanic.

I should also mention that I has bought a whole bunch of peristaltics for my research and the best deal is always eBay. Just sayin'.

cant use the aqualifter. the Calc will gum up the membrane system within the pump. It says right on the box that if you use it for kalk or calcium it will void the warranty and damage the pump. Though there might be a pre filter box they sell for the aqualifter to reduce the damage. i will check the box when i get home tonight.
