The osmolator is a DC powered sump pump. just a tiny one that feeds water through a airline sized hose. The osmolator doses approx 8 oz of water each cycle. Trust me, everyone I have ever known wh would recomend a peristalic pump over a Tunze, has never owned a Tunze.

A while ago a buddy of mine (Yiniger on RC). wanted a top-off. I recomended the Tunze, another reefer told him no way, get a perostalic pump from reefdosingpumps.com. He purchased the peristalic pump. Ask him what he thinks. BTW, he now owns a Tunze.
