looking for advice

[unclemuskie]

I currently dose the 2 part ESV bionic to my 125 manually.this is becoming quite a hassle.I'm looking for the ideal steup to replace this but have some limitations.number 1 ,I only have an oversize stand to work with,no basement or behind the wall fish room.number 2 ,combining my top-off to this is not feasable right now as my r/o water sits in a garbage can about 30 feet away from my tank.I have looked into the ESV doser they sell but not sure if thats the way I want to go.Any suggestions with setup description would be fantastic,thanks alot.

some people will say make your own. But i would get this.......yes it is pricey but i use it and I love it....... http://www.seaquestmarine.com/product_ESV_DOSER.htm

I get my B-ionic 2 part from marine depot and it lasts me almost two months. Awesome little doser .

plus if you ever got comfortable enought to make your own you can still use this dosing system.....

that was one thing I was looking at.Is it easy to setup and use,plus how much space does it take up????

I have mine sitting low on the ground next to my tank. And the pump sits on top of the tank. this is to protect the dose from draining in to the tubes going to the pump or to then tank. You need to add these in different sections of your tank. I drop one in the overflow and one in the tank itself.

I noticed my propagation start once I started using this poor man's reactor.
