      2 part dosing pumps for 300g

      I am in the market for a dosing pump and was wondering what do SDR fellow reefers use in terms of automatic dosing pumps.

      So far I have heard good things about Bubble Magus Dosing Pump BM T01 and GHL ProfiLux Stand Alone Dosing System, 3 Pumps w/ Controller. There are bunch of pros & cons on both. I would like to hear more on this or any other dosing pump which you might have used. Please share your experience and observations, thx!

      I've just recently acquired the BM dosing pump. It has been up and running for almost 2 weeks. I am happy with it. It does run loud when it is on. If you were to mount it inside your stand it would not be a problem. I keep forgetting to dose daily and it has helped a lot.

      I was looking at the BM when I finally decided to get an automatic Doser. I did a search on eBay and ended up getting a marine magic 3 stage dosing system for around half the cost. I have been very happy with it so far.

      With a 300g its more cost effective to go with a calcium reactor...just saying..but if you decide on dosing pump ghl
      Or the vertex dosing pump is good.

      I use 3 Bulk Reef Supply dosing pumps controlled by my Apex. You can use digital timers if you don't already have a controller.

      Hey Jason, How is the dosing pump doing so far? How long you had it? Does it come with everything you need right away?

      Its been great so far. Comes with everything but the containers for whatever you are dosing. Depending on how far away the Doser is your gonna need more air line. Aquasd sells the exact same kind it comes with. If you order let me know because I need a couple extra adapters for mine and would like to just add to yours if you don't mind.
