    Took the design off reefkeeping.com but it was still fun to make and it's dripping away right now!

    simple but proven effective, Nitty Gritty

    I used very similar for Calcium and Alkalinity before I got my doser
    and it certainly performed well enough for me

    Yep, seems to work nicely. Not the most attractive of equipment but oh well. It cost about 6 dollars. :)

    Cool. I'm looking into doing something similar.

    Can you post the link to the guide to building it?

    I'm guilty of a five gallon bucket of Mrs. Wages solution with 3 feet of rigid tubing connected to 6 feet of airline and a knot at the end for proper regulation.

    Sorry for the late reply or I would have given that link. I used a 1 littler Fiji water bottle and black airline tubing. ;D
