dosing pumps

Can anyone tell me what dosing pump is the best.

I think that bubble magus dosing pump and jebao are good with best prices

BRS, no frills medical/scientific grade pump. Add a digital timer to it and your set.

BRS is very simple and works well from what I read. If you have the money, I would get the Bubble Magnus, it's what I use, and it's amazing

1 thing about dosing pumps if you deff 100 percent cannot slack on, the brs is 1.1 ml per minute is a reliable option . I run the neptune dos nd 3 brs

I have both BRS 1.1 and the Bubble Magnus dosser, I came home one night to a white tank as one of the dosing pumps (Bubble Magnus) heads popped off the unit and because of my setup emptied little under 1/4 gallon of soda ash into the DT. The BRS are meant to be controlled with digital timer or better yet a Apex unit, it is a bit more setup and programming with the Apex but this site makes it super easy. The BRS Pumps are designed well and work great. The DOS is another excellent option and uses stepper motor these are some of the same motors used in CNC Bridgeport units for precision machining the reliability it top notch! What ever dosing system you go with I recommend you research the unit, pull a copy of the owners manual/setup to fully understand what you're getting and how it's to be setup.

...also research customer service for each unit and you will find that some are WAY better than others and something that must be taken into consideration!

I'm a GHL fan, have a few of them. If I was trying to save a few bucks Bubble Magus would be my second choice.

I love my BRS pumps controlled by Apex. They have worked flawlessly for me for 2 1/2 years. Programming is not hard.

Thank you everyone for your help, I'll have to check the bubble magnus out.

Litermeter is the best and most reliable.

I'm interested in this as well. I was looking at the Pacific Sun Kore 5th, but it seems for the money there are better options out there. I've also toyed with the idea of running BRS pumps via Apex. I was running that set up on my old system and it worked well so long as adjustments were made based on test results. My only reservation on using the BRS pumps via Apex on my new build is that it seems to take up more space and I need another EB to allow for all my devices to run via Apex.

Other than Litermeter, is anyone using any other dosing pump system for AWC? I'll be working a with relatively small total water volume of approximately 100 gallons or less.
