2 part or A+B dosing WHO'S THE BEST???

[xmetalfan99]

I know a number of people who use BRS 2-part with great results. As well as E.S.V. 2-part. E.S.V. is good for those who don't want to mix anything while the BRS is great for people who don't mind mixing if it means saving money.

yes definitely. the brs kit saves alot of money no doubt. now anyone know who sells those dosing "cylinders"? i saw one once but couldn't find it online. (maybe wasn't using the right keywords) anyways i guess maybe i could make my own since i picked up a router and some weld on and some acrylic...... ..........

Do you mean a dosing pump? Not sure what you mean buy cylinder.

BUBBLE-MAGUS - Aquarium Internal skimmer|external skimmer|Dosing pump|Calcium reactor|Nitrate reductor/NO3 reductor|Filters|Turtle shell lampshade|Water monitor and controller|Additives|moonlight LED

Or do you mean a dosing container to hold the 2-part? You can just use jugs.

I recently switched from ESV to BRS. It brought my ph up from 7.8 to 8.1 in about a week and the polyp extension on my sps has improved.

You could just build a square instead of a cylinder. Will be easier and cheaper. If you decide to go with the cylinder check out tapplastics.com. i buy a lot of precut acrylic from them. they sell all different ypes and shapes.

Yeah that bubble magnus is a nice cylinder....most of the equipment and supplies from BRS tend to be really good!

yeah i was looking at the "cheaper" ones tho. hahah too thin! been in the DIY mode lately and i recently built a "chalice condo" out of a used pencil/pamphlet acrylic holder that protects from hermits and the like from climbing on my chalices during feeding time. pics will post tonite!
