I am intrigued by the idea of setting up a couple of dosing pumps on my 72-gallon to manage my Macro/Micro dosing... I have only recently stumbled on the idea from a mention on another board.
So, a few things. I am wondering if anyone here is using a dosing pumps? How exactly do you hook these up? Can you get them to run inline with a canister filter, to avoid putting any tubes or equipment in your tank?
From what I gather the concept is simple. Fill a 1 or 2 liter bottle with a premix. Get a pump that will pull from your bottle and move it to your tank. But then my concerns would be accuracy and plumbing. I can mix the solution any which way, but I would need a to know how much it would be dosing in a single go. I would also need to find a way to ideally plumb it into the outlflow of one of my canisters...
Anyone?
