Good/bad Dosers?

[Koi Valley]

I've been thinking of picking up a doser for my 90 gal tank and I noticed a few for sale here on the forum. Can anyone advise me on which brands I should AVOID so I don't pick up something I might regret.

Any advice would be appreciated.

I have no brand loyalty to anything really. If you want a cheap programmable doser that will do the job go with a Jebao. I’ve had success with all the Jebao equipment I’ve used. If you want something better go with a kamoer.

If you have a controller on your reef grab a BRS doser and run it off the controller.

I typically steer clear of cutting corners on cost on dosers simply because they can nuke your tank potentially. That being said I have not heard much bad about jebao and own several of their pumps and powerheads. I personally have a kamoer and am fairly happy with it.

Just bought a jabeo. I like it so far. But it only been a week. I read good and bad about all losers. Even the really expensive ones.

What about Marine Magic? Where do they stand with Dosers?

There is no perfect doser out there. Be sure to read reviews both good and bad. I personally have been a huge fan of Jebao pumps over the years. We all know that they are hit and miss on dependability but cost offsets that. In the case of a doser though, dependability is very important. I have seen tons of reviews where they broke in the on position dumping entire containers of alk into a tank. I personally have used Kamoer in the past. They are a good middle line of dependability and cost. I currently use GHL Doser 2.1 and it has been my favorite, but with that comes a higher price tag.
