So I have been dosing manually for a year and I got sick of it, I bought a dosing pump.  I have been using BRS 2 part/3 part (alk cal and mag)  I would use 1/4tsp of alk and cal per day.  I used two yogurt containers and scooped a container full of rodi and mixed with the 1/4tsp of each and would dose half in morning and half at night.  Now I am trying to figure out how concentrated I should/can make the water in the dosing containers and how many ml of that solution I should dose per day.  Any help would be appreciated.

Don't confuse yourself with the volumes of water....all your "really" putting in the tank is the 1/4 teaspoon per day.

 

So plan it out to be 1/4 teaspoon per day coming out of the doser too.

 

If you put 1/4 teaspoon into a gallon of water, then your doser would have to dose 1 gallon a day.

 

If you put 1 cup, then it would have to dose 1/4 gallon per day.

 

Make sense?
