Good idea or bad idea?

Was thinking about picking up a few Kent Marine's Aqua Dose System.
Or try to make my own.(DIY)

I don't have the money for reactors.
So the drip method is my best bet.

And advice?

For whatever.
I picked up a bunch of supplements at bulk sale.
I understand that i can't mix them up.
But i figure i can get two different drops running.

Mostly so i can keep the SPS healthy.

Two part is easier than kalk when dripping gravity feed style. Kalk will work but you'll need to keep the end of the drip line clear for a consistent drip.

I drip kalk two different ways. One is with a Tom aquatics aqualifter conected to IV line with a roller clamp.


On my frag tank I gravity drip from an IV bag with a roller clamp. At one drop every 3 seconds I top off with RO depending on the humidity. The kent Marine doser would work fine. Kalk tends to settle on the bottom of any container you put it in so you have to flush the tubing once in a while. Everytime to refill the settled kalk will be mixed up.


Sorry for the big pics
