    hi.

    sorry for the 3 year late reply, but just posting it here for info.

    i DIY an auto doser to dose ferts.

    bought 12V adapter, digital timer accurate to the minute, and peristaltic pump, 2 of each.

    total cost was about 50 to 60.

    but spent quite some time setting it up, plus having tools at my work place saved me a little money, as i had to make a stand for the pumps and adapters.

    started running it for a few days so far, accidentally overdosed my tank with micros twice so far -_-

    in hindsight, buying a pre made auto doser like the one jebao sells is a wiser choice. saves me some time, fustration and anxiety of overdose.

    also, i realised that having 3 pumps instead of 2 may be better, to avoid some chemicals mixing together and precipitating.
