Diy : 24/7 New Water Dripping System

in my old article DIY : 24/7 New Water Drip System it works great for chlorine. but when i found out about Chloramine in my water. That system will be useless when chloramine is in the water.

So i start looking for NH2CL (Chloramine) Filters but it will leave ammonia in the water. and its expensive in a long to replace the filter.

I call up my good friend JohnPTC. he mention to me about a dosing system call Dosmatic that he is using.

Here is what you need

• Dosmatic MinoDos 1%
• Seachem Prime
• In-line 1 Micron filter
• Water Container (for diluted prime)
• In-line Carbon (Optional)
• In-line UV Sterlizer (optional)
• Pressure Gauge (Optional )
• 1/4 Tubing

Here is a diagram (click diagram to enlarge)

What is Seachem Prime

Prime™ is the complete and concentrated conditioner for both fresh and salt water. Prime™ removes chlorine, chloramine and ammonia. Prime™ converts ammonia into a safe, non-toxic form that is readily removed by the tank’s biofilter. Prime™ may be used during tank cycling to alleviate ammonia/nitrite toxicity. Prime™ detoxifies nitrite and nitrate, allowing the biofilter to more efficiently remove them. It will also detoxify any heavy metals found in the tap water at typical concentration levels.Prime™ also promotes the production and regeneration of the natural slime coat. Prime™ is non-acidic and will not impact pH. Prime™ will not overactivate skimmers. Use at start-up and whenever adding or replacing water

Use 1 capful (5 mL) for each 200 L (50 gallons*) of new water.

Here is how a Dosmatic Works



Prime is a highly concentrated solution.

1 capful (5 mL) for each 200 L = 1: 40,000

Dosmatic MinoDos 1% have a lowest injection rate at 1:500 so you need to diluted the prime with RO/Distill water.

Although Dosmatic has a 4ML model (1:4000) but you still need to dilute the prime and the cost of the machine is 3x more.

i did some calculation for Dosmatic MiniDos 1% when its set at 1:500. You need to Dilute Prime 1:80 first before pump in the the Dosmatic MinoDos 1%


here is the final product

Wow. Thats about all I can say.

Darn I wish I could build another fish room and use some of the stuff that people, with bigger brains than I, have come up with. I could never do this on my own. So much information. So little of a room.

Thanks for the detailed post...

I've been researching this for a while... not for me but for a tank my dad wants to put up. I'll have to pick your brain a bit when he decides to finally remodel his house.

Thanks Li,
Great info, just what I need in my fish room more toys lol.
