Tunze Osmolator Universal 3155 Question

[ezcompany]

Hi Roger and fellow Tunze users, hope you had a very Merry Christmas, and are preparing for that all nighter party during New Years!

I have a 24 gallon all in one system, Aquapod 24 to be specific, and I run it topless. It has a false wall in the back, where i place a hob filter and a hob skimmer. I am trying to go on a trip for a few days, and was wondering if the Osmolator could solve my problems.

Things i need:

1. dose 2 part solution 20 ml of each, twice a day (40 ml total of each solution every day, am and pm interval)

2. dose around half a gallon of kalkwasser every night

and finally (this may be farfetched but it can't hurt to ask), I would like it to dose 1.5 ml of two additives every day.

--------
my questions are:
Does the 3155 come with everything i need to perform the above functions? obviously 1 and 2 are the most important to me.

what other things will i need?

The reservoir will be on the ground, which is around 5-6 feet of head.

Thanks everyone for your help!

It could dose one additive or kalk. To dose kalk it is best to add the calcium dispenser. If it was my set up, I would use the osmolator with the calcium dispenser, this will dose very small amounts of kalk all day but it sounds like you are losing about 1 gal per day if you dose 1/2 gal at night. Then I would dose half the 2 part solution and in a lower dose Eheim AquaDosers could add that.

so basically, i will need another dosing pump for the 2 parts. can you recommend me one?

 

[rvitko]

As I said the Eheim LiquiDoser would work for lower quantities, I think they only hold 100ml. Otherwise a Litermeter is your best bet with a second pump.

Eheim Liquidoser will not work with me being gone for more than a few days so Tunze does not make dosing pumps...i will look into the litermeter. thanks Roger
