calculating dosing pump times
I have the older style dual pump reef angel dosing pump and wish to deliver 4 liquid oz of material a day. Can someone help me with the math to determine the run time and the line of code to drive it. Thx in advance.

Re: calculating dosing pump times
4oz is about 120ml
You need to pump about 160s per day at 0.75ml/s

Re: calculating dosing pump times
so I'll be using the 1/4" tubing that came with it...so this means this pump moves liquid at .75ml/s? Thx
