"Balling Method" Timer question

[Reefer Rob]

1.5 ml per minute, that's SLOW! Should work great with a minute timer.

My Profilux dosers put out about 50 ml per minute, but I of course dose in seconds.

Look for timers that allow for as many cycles per day as you can get, to keep your parameters stable. I dose Alk and Ca 20 times per day, so I get no spikes at all.

nice find on the pump

try these guys, use a standard timer to time when in the day you want to dose and use one of these for the micro seconds your pump needs.

Ya me too. I can look into it soon if there are enough people wanting stuff. I would imagine there would be since its open to the whole board I think. Not sure though, I would have to ask---thats just how it was last time but maybe they just do that once a year or something.

I can use my Aquacontroller to dose a minute at a time all throughout the day. Shouldn't get too many spikes.

I think these pumps would work great for the balling method or even just the regular two part. I might just go two part since I already run ZEO which includes the AA and such. I really don't want to be adding more of them.
