Lets see who has what with Pros and Cons please.

Ready set GO!!
 
Ok, let me rephrase this. I am in the market for a doser but I would like some feedback on the 2 that I have narrowed my choices down too. I want to here personal experiences, programing issues, difficulties ect. Anything would be helpfull.
 
can't give you anything helpful. My MM doser is still in the box unopened for a few months now. Too lazy to set it up but heard great thing about it
?
 
The bubble magus is one of the best pumps on the market. it's accurate and reliable.. IMO the Marine magic is pure crap. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. I had one in the past that never stayed calibrated and would vary in ml amounts by +/- 10ml. I've never had that problem or any problem with my bubble magus. BM is user friendly, and easy to program.
 
I also have the Bubble Magus. Can't give you any cons except the military time it runs on. I unboxed it and set it up in 10 minutes. Haven't had to touch it over a month. When the power goes out it has a power outage feature and comes right back on with data saved.
 
Wow, thanks guus both sides. Ok I personally have never used a dosing pimp and have no clue, I jave been checking out some videos and I found one on programing the MM one but the screen wasn't displayed verywell in the video and he didn't explaine what he was doing. I am confident that BM is a better option. And I like that the BM is user friendly so thats a big plus. For me the whole point was to set it and forget it, and focus on my weekly water changes.
 
Set it and forget it is what Ive basically done. Here's a video I found for the BM. Whenever I look at buying something new I watch as many youtube video's as I can. If you get the BM get the options with it like the bracket to hold it and the little bracket to hold your lines coming off your doser.

Definitely would get the Bracket and the arline holder. Very excited & Thanks for the vid link!
 
Apologies for bumping this but I wanted to add an opinion. I bought the Marine Magic pump. Pump C did not work, so I used pump B. After 3 months pump B started leaking both while dosing and after as the liquid would drain back out and onto the floor. Not happy. In addition, if power fails just for a second the Marine Magic reverts to manual mode, no more dosing until someone puts it back into auto. Not very good for vacations!

Bubble Magus on order now.
