Accurate Dosing Pumps
Hey guys and girls,

Does anyone know of accurate dosing pumps, either DIY or off the shelf?

I am wanting to dose in the range of 3ml-10ml daily so want it to be fairly accurate.

I know of the Saltwater Conversions Nano doser - https://saltwater-conversion.com/products/nano-doser-1 - however the syringe (I think you can put up to a 30ml in there) will only give me < 10 days of "automation" - so far this is the best option.

Hoping something that may be able to pump from a traditional container might be available.

Cheers

3ml isn't too bad. My smallest doses are 3ml(multiple times a day) and it been is fairly accurate. My pump is semi DIY and uses the same heads as Jebao, so I would guess the cheap Jebao can dose 3ml, as well.

The GHL doser 2 I have is very accurate. I dose 0.5ml of NOPOX a day and when first set up I measured the amount dosed everyday. Was spot on every time.

Aqua Medic have a single channel doser, you can run it on a timer so you could calibrate it easily enough.
