Which Dosing unit to buy?
 
Hey all

I am looking for some details on a good doser. Right now I am looking at a Profilux GHL but that is on the higher side $$$.

Are there other ones out there what work really well with out costing me an arm and leg? I also don't want some cheap POS either..

Any help would be great!

I have a bubble magus triple, it's pretty much a reverse engineered GHL, I think it has the same pumps, been using it about a year now, works great, easy to program and I've had no problems with it.
I would buy it again.

Sounds nice. You can program it the same as the GHL? Do you remember how much you paid for it?

I use a Profilux doser. I like it because it's Made in Germany instead of somewhere offshore. It is also repairable if anything should go wrong... leaking peri tubing, worn out pump head, fried motor etc.

Cheers,
Tim

I am using a marine magic doser. It's almost half the price of some other dosers. Have been running it over a year without any problem. One of the sponsors here, caco3, seems to start carrying it or whatever they are trying to do with it. Check with caco3. If not, go to ebay and search for marine magic, or marine color, same stuff, different names.

Ill look into the marine magic doser. truth be told I wont buy anything off Ebay that could screw my tank up lol. Ive spent so much money all ready that I would hate to buy something cheap and nuke my tank..

Just saying lol.

They are cheap though, only 165.00 thats not bad at all.. Ill have to look up some reviews :)

Thanks
