Before you buy a dosing pump, make sure that the output is capable of handling your tank's evaporation. I bought a medical-grade peristaltic pump from ebay and had to return it because it didn't handle my tank's 2.5gpd evaporatiuon rate. ALSO, if you use the dosing pump at night only, rember to double your tank's evaporation rate as you would have 12 hrs instead or 24 hrs to replenish the evaporation rate.
Calculation:
500ml=1 pint
4 pints= 1 gallon
If the pump pumps 300ml per hour, the maximum capacity of the pump is 3.6 gallons per day if you run the pump all they long. If you only dose 12 hrs at night, the capacity is really 1.8.
Hope this helps.
