I was getting old so I'm switching from CR to a GHL doser on this build. It will be for sale and i'll throw in some free Viagra.

To be fair, I built mine when I was much younger :) It's aged with me and served me well. I doubt I could use a doser, I have enough trouble with a TV remote..

do prefer a doser though but a lot more maintenance then a calcium reactor.

I disagree; I think automated dosing is for old, forgetful people. I can't stick to a consistent manual dosing routine; I need the controller to do the remembering for me....

I have about 250 gallons I used ghl 3 pump doser at first but got sick of refilling alk all the time calcium was not much better so I decided to take the old man route lol jetstream 1 by scharan not sure if I'm old enough for it I'm 33 but I will be using it as long as I run sw tanks I love it way less work then dosing.
