do you know any one that has used it in this type of application.
Also, 1 ml/min seems very slow - is that correct. By comparison a Tom's Aqualifter pump is rated 220ml/min (30 gph)
what is the max height that the pump is rated for.
Can you post a close up shot of the rollers?
Do the low power usage require plugging this into a relay outlet on a controller (Apex)?

I figure I can answer a couple of these for u.
1.1 ml/min is slow which is why it's a dosing pump. You never want to dose chemicals fast. J&L sells another version of this called the "Shlobster Top Off Pump" which is 50 ml/min. Maybe that's something that would better suit you.
The specifications say it has a 20' TDH (Total Dynamic Head) which is basically the same as max head height I believe.
All in all, the specifications seem very similar to BRS dosing pumps. Dunno if it's the same manufactures or not tho.
