    Default Changing the time (gap) between the dosing pumps

    So, dosing pumps goes one after the other after 7min and 30sec.

    I would like to change that, so as not two solutions run too close.
    (Kalkwasser & Ca shouldn't being used in the same time: 7min is the same time for a reef).

    It could be spread all over the 24 hours, like
    Dosing pump 1 in 00:00
    Dosing pump 2 in 06:00
    Dosing pump 3 in 12:00
    Dosing pump 4 in 18:00

    If more that one dose per day for some dosing pump, then add all the dosings per date, (say 8 doses), divide 24h with 8 and you have one dose every 3 hours.

    This could be done automatic or it could be up to user to set the individual times between doses.

    Can`t you use the manual dosing mode for this?

    If I need to add 50ml per day I set auto dosing with 5 dosings per day / 10 ml rate per dosing.

    I do that to maintain as much stable water parameters as I can.

    Now I am using 2 dosing units with 4 pumps each and I am thinking to add one more unit of 4 pumps to add phytoplankton. So, I put everything in auto as it is much more easier for me than from calculating what pump do what and when.

    PS:Sorry if my wishes are naive, but this is what you get when you have you Profi3ex doing everything for you
