The Bubble Magus BM-TO1 Doser is an interesting nugget tucked away on the Bubble Magus site that is currently only available overseas. That is about to change. 3reef just got word that Nuocean, a USA Bubble Magus distributor, will soon be carrying the BM-T01 for $240 USD. If the sold out sign currently hung on the NAC6 skimmer is any indication, you might want to pre-order now. Specs, pics and video of the BM-T01 doser inside.

Tunze Osmolator fans rejoice! One of the best auto-top-offs is about to get a lot better with magnet holders for the sensors. The old holders were designed for rim-less aquariums and I and everyone else that has one had to fabricate a holder for our poor USA tanks - so this is a big deal to us. :) Prices and shipping date below.


Tunze 3155.600 Magnet Holder for Osmolator ATO

The 3155.600 shown below will hold both sensors and cost $32.55. The 3155.500 will hold just the float switch and cost $29.52. If you want to mount the sensors seperately, you will need both. Both holders will come with the new Osmolator. They will be out in 3 weeks!!

You read it here first! :)

3reef was recently shown a protoype of a new doser from SpectraPure that should interest you two part calcium dosers and the like. This new doser will allow you to control the ratios for both parts while only requiring 1 channel on your controller! This prototype had removable heads for cleaning and rotation so that you can align the hoses better. The hoses pictured are 1mm in diameter but the production model will have 2mm hoses allowing for up to 50-60 ml/hr output. These SpectraPure dosers should ship by end of year.

I just loaded my camera and will be taking a road-trip down to southern California today for Reef-A-Palooza this weekend! 8) Anyone out in this neck of the woods should drop everything and check this out!



About Reef-A-Palooza

Reef-A-Palooza (RAP) is an annual event promoted by the Southern California Marine Aquarium Society (SCMAS).
