Very interested in this. How would this work on a im 30l? I have never dosed before, very new to the hobby. Dosing container included?

This one doesn't come with the dosing containers -- BUT, those dosing containers are mostly useful for things outside of Alkalinity, Calcium, and Magnesium (which is why I never got them). The magnetic stirrer is great if you're dosing foods or other items that actually need to be stirred.

What would I use as a container? What do you recommend? Not much info on the internet about this product

I just use regular dosing containers, although this item has never been used. Any dosing containers would work, from BRS to Seaside aquatics, to DIY. It's just a hose that connects to a container, that container has a small hard tube that extends to near bottom.

I understand slightly. I’m really new to the sw side of the hobbie so excuse me. If you could provide a link to dosing containers that would fit this perfectly, I’d appreciate that. I’d like to utilize the stirrers. Also if you could provide a lot more pics that would be sweet! Thanks

So dosing containers are cheap unless you are going for a picture perfect sump that you are going to take hundreds of pictures of. But here is a link to containers. The cheap ones work 100% dont let the price fool you on these.. Anything that will hold what you need will work. Old glass jars, cheap cereal containers anything that is plastic or glass.

Thank you @EW_Fish

@coronarex -- Here is a simple, cheap container that has space for Alk, Cal, and Mag from Amazon <--- LINK. There are many different types and sizes, but if you have a smaller tank this should last you awhile.

Here are pictures of the container from Amazon

Here are the official Arka dosing containers -- A bit expensive <--- LINK

There are a lot of options here, these are just examples, and the ones made by Arka to magnetically stir their dosed elements.

No problem!
