Re: wavemaker and dosing questions
I have an SCWD, new in the box if you want to trade some life, or frag, I would be glad to. I want to try to put in the wave controller in my new tank.
So dosing bottle. I tried once and failed because I could not figure out how to control the flow. This is what I did: I got an orange juice bottle, they come in several sizes, wrapped aluminum wire around it to hold it to the bulk head and voila. But it would not drip. I knew why, but not how to resolve, now I see two holes in the cap with two valves to control in with a tube to the bottom to let IN air, and a tube out for dosing. I will try again and post the results and a picture whether or not I am successful. I got an IV and a choke, but I could not figure out a bottle in place of the IV bag.

Thanks for the info Nick. I haven't been to Rapids and was thinking of trying the IV tubing and choke Andre has but so far, I'm still just manually dosing 1/2 a.m and have p.m. Might take you up on the SCWD.

pm me the details if you decide to part with it
