so be ready
there will be a numeric deadline:cry:
As for next month we will be carrying the doser but with a higher $$ tag
stated by the manufacturer.
And yes if we meet a minimum of 10 units by the end of the term
we will be getting a free pump and motor:biggrin:

I would love to tell you yes but I would be lying you are #11:biggrin: well that's #1 after 10 :biggrin:

Reefie 02-10-2012 08:11 PM

Haha! At least there's still a #1 in it. Like my mother used to tell me that "I'm Special" :lol:

So when does the group buy end for this order? Like NOW??? I'm really looking forward to getting the doser SOONER than LATER. Haha!

Like my kids always ask, "Are we there yet?"

ashr 02-10-2012 09:45 PM

Do you know what the new rate will be?

mseepman 02-16-2012 03:12 PM

Any Idea on delivery times for this first order?

alcoolaid 02-16-2012 03:41 PM

I believe he mentioned they shipped late last week? Im guessing another week at least till they arrive.

dc4 02-16-2012 04:54 PM

Wow! I don't know about you guys but I just got mine delivered. =)

Off to work now tho, so I can't even open the box... =(

Dont worry, I didnt get a tracking number either, Ross may have asked Eli directly for one.

toxic111 02-16-2012 07:37 PM

Not a big deal, nice to see that they are arriving already.. though I am in the Boonies, so I will be a bit yet I expect.

How fast is everyones s4 speed? I have mine lifting from a bottle about 25 inches below the pump and it's going pretty slow.

alcoolaid 02-18-2012 09:26 AM

Nvm it's going faster now for some reason.

FragIt Dan 02-18-2012 03:44 PM

S4 flow rate=1.75seconds/ml +/- ~10% for me on my three tanks, but that was with +/- ~1' rise/drop depending on the tank. I tested three of these on three tanks and ran various runs over several days with 12 daily doses of between 20 and 45 seconds/dose on a 100g/l Ca and a saturated dKh solution. Remember after you change the setting you have to hit 'Save', I only mention because I forgot one time and was wondering the same. Dan

alcoolaid 02-18-2012 07:55 PM

Yeah don't forget you have to push save on every page. I filled out all 4 pages on one pump and pushed save on page 4 and it only saved 1 page!

dc4 02-18-2012 08:01 PM

Is there a benefit to separate the doing into smaller doses throughout the day? Or do you guys dose it all at once? I currently have it setup to dose at S4 for 2 minutes and an hour apart for a and b.

Here's my setup

FragIt Dan 02-20-2012 04:01 PM

There are a few benefits I see for separating the dosing evenly throughout the day:

1) for things like Ca, MG, dkH you want to keep your parameters as stable as possible to reduce stress on the corals. In my case, I am dosing more than 20ppm Ca/day and more than 1 dkH/day, so one blast of Ca or dKh per day is a pretty big swing.

2) If your power goes out the clock on the marine magic brand of doser resets to midnight. Depending upon your dosing schedule you are vulnerable to over/under dosing if you don't remember to reset it by the time your single dose should have/accidentally did happen. You could avoid this by setting your dose schedule to 23:00 for the one dose, at which point you would perhaps under dose by a bit for the one day. I do this for my Trace and Food supplements that I want to dose only 1/day (more on this in point 3).

3) You wont cause larger swings in parameters locally in your dosing area, which can cause precipitation of your supplements and stress on your sump inhabitants (this specifically refers to major elements). A note on this one... my third channel is set up for my trace elements and foods which I dose directly into my tank. Nothing in this channel in my ingredients reacts with anything to precipitate out, and it is my opinion that the the coral uptake mechanism for trace and minor elements is better served with larger pulses of concentrations rather than chronic lower levels.

When do you think you'll do another order I would lime to get one.

Snufflupagus 02-21-2012 03:30 AM

I was reading whole reef central thread about marine magic dosing pump, and manufacture recommend not vertical set up. Do you have any issue? One of the guy had a pump problem with vertical set up.

reefme 02-21-2012 01:34 PM

Hopefully I will receive mine today. Have anyone in Edmonton received their yet?

Oilers 02-21-2012 02:38 PM

I am in Edmonton and haven't received mine yet. Maybe it's delayed due to the holiday.

toxic111 02-21-2012 04:03 PM

I'm in Lloyd, but my mail don't show up till later in the day.. won't know till I get home

Seriak 02-21-2012 04:27 PM

I believe they came through Vancouver so that is why most of the members in Vancouver already received theirs. I don't believe anyone has received theirs in Alberta yet. At least I haven't.
