When I had my previous reef, I hand dosed homemade 2 part. We are setting up a new system and I'd like to research which is better for me. The tank will be 78ish gallons. We will be running a reef keeper so I think I can hook that up with the Kalk top off and the pH probe. But how do dosing pumps work with 2 part? How do I know how much needs to be dosed? It's been so long since I left the hobby I just can't remember these things! Thanks in advance for the help. Articles, pictures, advice, and personal experience all help.
 
If you know the daily demand for alk, you set the pumps to dose that.

if not, you set them by trial and error. Pick a small dose, and adjust up or down after a bit of monitoring. :)
