Some of you may have seen my first write up on Bulk Reef Supply's 2 part kit over on SDR

While adding two part is a very easy process, being the lazy reefer that I am and winning a RKL controller I looked to add some automatic dosers to handle the task and quite frankly, be more consistent. It was a no brainer for me to look at BRS own line of dosers which have received plenty of rave reviews. Since I'm not the most technical of people when it comes to putting stuff together, I thought that I would for sure need help setting it up. Well, with the help of the internet I was able to quickly set the dosers up and get them automated in about 30 minutes and that is probably slow. The dosers seem made of high quality material and come with easy to read instructions, not to mention the videos on their website @ www.bulkreefsupply.com. To make things even better, BRS offers group buys and while I organized this one they come up frequently on the boards.

Since I'm lazy, I haven't been testing as much as I really should be but I'm also starting off the dosage levels a bit lower than I was normally manually putting in since it is now spread out over the day. I may end up adding a 3rd doser for magnesium but for now I have no problem just adding it about once a week.

I have to say for the novice reefer or even experienced reef geek that doesn't want to deal with the constant tinkering a lot of calcium reactors can cause people, I have to say this is the way to go. I'll update the thread after some time to let you know how they continue to perform.

I am thinking about adding dosers to my tank. These will do the trick. I have one question though. How did you supply the solution to the pumps? What type of bottle or container did you use?

Way to go Marlin. Keep us posted on how it works.
