Guide Review - Eheim Liquidoser

The Eheim Liquidoser was originally designed to dispense liquid plants food into aquariums but some aquarists have found it useful for dosing Kalkwasser or lime water. One container filling will dispense up to 50 equal doses. This doser may take some time to adjust the number of doses per day and the concentration of the lime water or kalkwasser before a satisfactory daily amount dosed is reached. The reasonable price on this unit may make the trouble worthwhile.
