2 part dosing

[mvm]

I have 2 drew's dosing pumps that I want to use to add a 2-part. I have an acjr to control the pumps. Does anyone have a suggestion as to what programming to use for the alk to run at night and the cal to run during the day?

I would run them together in different sections of the sump, so your calcium won't participate.

Don't have it setup, but I went to buy a couple last week and set them up. I would just set them to turn on for a set number of minutes. You would need two outlets.

For example

If Time > 12:30 Then ALK ON
If Time > 12:35 Then ALK OFF
If Time > 24:30 Then CAL ON
If Time > 24:35 Then CAL OFF

I think there is also a way to do it using a feed timer. But the that would take a little more effort on my part, but it would probably make it easier to adjust the dosing levels.

Why wouldn't i want them to participate?
Actually, I don't have a sump. I've read a lot of post with people running cal during the day and alk at night to stablize PH.
