Re: [APD] Eheim Aqua Fluid Liquidoser

I got one soon after they came out. It seemed to work well for the few 
days I used it, then I bumped it into the tank while doing my regular 
maintenance and water change. It did not respond well to total 
immersion - in fact it responded quite negatively to total immersion. I 
did not replace it.

I can't remember how much it holds - probably a bit over 100 ml. The 
dose delivered is a fixed amount and I think I measured it as around 
1.7 ml but memory could fail me now after several years. You'll have to 
measure that yourself since the manual did not state the volume of the 
dose. You can set it to deliver several doses in order to build to 
larger volumes per dose, and have it dose several times a day as well.

Because of the dosing system, you may have to dilute your fertiliser 
mix in order to have it deliver the dose you want.
