Auto Dosing Dispersal

[Bradders]

Hi All,

I have an auto-doser and am looking to use it. However, are there any risks in dosing at one section within the aquarium?

To illustrate, when I dose manually, I add the 8 ml spread across the water surface and into the flow. The auto-doser cannot be so well 'tuned' for even distribution.

So the question is, is the dosing less effective when used at a single entry point than dosing more uniformly around the aquarium?

Cheers,
Brad

No, it should be fine. I think of it like adding salt to soup, once you've given it a stir you don't get "salty" and "non-salty" patches.

you can also put your autodoser inlet close to the filter outlet, so it will disperse it for you

I feed mine into the surface skimmer for dispersal.

I add mine next to the filter outlet, it gets dispersed very quickly then
