Hydros Dosing Pump???

[slacker036]

So I am looking for my first dosing pump to go with my mixed reef xl 525 that I am currently running a Hydros X2 for Temp, Skimmer with sensor, Feeder, and two Orphek LED bars. I know I can configure a simple doser on a schedule with the x2 but it would be nice if we knew when CoralVue was going to release their dosing pump so I could use a pump port rather than a smart outlet port. They even have reference to a Hydros Simple Dosing Pump in the official support thread. Mostly just a rant as I will probably end up with something else the week before they officially announce something and I will be stuck with it till it dies hopefully years down the road.

That is a big-time drawback, thanks for the heads up.

Just posted in the below link, we'll see if Carlos responds back.

Compatible Dosing pumps?

I need to complete my tank setup from a clean slate. Bought the hydros 4 starter pack along with all the sensors available. I would like to have the Hydros do everything instead of a Frankenstein setup. Which Dosing pumps are compatible with the Hydros? I like the Versa/ Ntune DOS for their...

People were jerks when they missed released dates in the past so they won't do that anymore.

Would be great if I didn't buy a cheap one 3 weeks ago trying to decide if I want to sell that one or wait till it breaks.

I am not familiar with that one. I have been using Intllab doser which are simple dosers and will run using the Hydros simple doser output and schedules. I have been using these even before I got the Hydros. Originally I was using the generic output with the scheduling on that output. I started using the simple doser output and scheduling with them. It has been working without any issues. They are hooked up to drive ports on the Hydros controllers.
