MMMM Pumping of jugs.
 What? All I said was "Pumping of jugs." We are still talking about dosing right?!

I knew that would come up. I'm serious though! What is all this talk of jugs and the pumping of those jugs?

In a futile attempt to reclaim my honour now (I realize that ship has sailed long ago, I may as well ask for my hair to grow back, but I digress), I'll add to this that I held off doing the Aqualifter pump dosing for the longest time because I was *certain* I would need timers that could do sub-minute intervals. In the end though that was a moot concern: in fact I'll probably switch the durations to two minutes per cycle because I'm having trouble keeping my Ca steady for some reason (just keeps dropping and dropping).

search ebay, some can be found cheap. They even have a little LCD display that works with the OBA6. called the Logo! TD All part of my master controller plan. presently I have a few OBA0's one doing lights on the 150g, another handeling ATO duties fro both tanks and the 3rd as spare. Programing is easy too, all Block Function logic. mostly Boolean with some premade functions. The PC programming software, LogoSoftComfort is real easy to use, even has a simulate function so you can test without plugging into the unit itself. http://shop.ebay.com/?_from=R40&_trk...All-Categories

Peristaltic i/v pumps are nice to have...I don't know the cost of the aquarium ones .. but I think one could achieve the same very inexpensively by using a bag such as i/v fluids are packaged in to hold whatever it is you want above the height of drip entry and adjusting the rate by the drip set..most are either 10 or 60 drops/ml. Easy and very inexpensive.I/v fluid bags (you may still be able to get bottles somewhere) come in many sizes..500ml to 20 liters or more. I have used the manual i/v flow controllers to adjust air line flow and it worked well.

I have a two part dozer but have not needed it so far so it is not hooked up right now. I am having a problem keeping my alk up and have been adding that to my top off water. It raises my PH too much though running at 8.5 and my alk is at 7.6 Can I go higher on my PH than that or am I doing something wrong?
My Ca and Mag are not a problem I just add a bit per week. I have a Ca reactor as well but not hooked up. I use baked arm and hammer. Don't want to high jack this thread just wondering?
