Can it dispense very small amounts, such as 15 medium flakes at a time? Are the dispensed flakes localized or spread all over the water surface? Thx

The way I use mine with flakes is I crush the flakes into small fragments. The big flakes will not fall through the opening. You could still regulate it to get the equivelant of "15 med" flakes. If u have an bubbler or filter system that cause water movement then the flakes will not stay localized but move about the surface and/or start to sink. Depending on placement there are other products that would hold the food in a location on the surface of the water, of it would sink out of that spot. Hope that helps.

Unlikely. Hole has to be larger than the flakes. Rotation speed constant. If you break up the flakes you can close the hole

It doesn't dispense on "count", but it can dispense a very small through very large amount. The opening in the canister has a lot of little notches so you can set it to dispense small or large amounts. My flakes get spread all over the surface of the water, but that's due to the water movement in my tank. If you have still water, I'm guessing it would still spread, just not as fast.

No, I didn't notice it floating. However, I don't fill my sink with water usually. But wait, I just tried it with about 2-inches of water, and it absolutely did not float. It stayed flat against the bottom.

You can dispense the tiniest amount. It can be a few flakes at the smallest setting. The smallest opening is about 1/8 of an inch.

That developers from having too much nutrient in the water colum. Took me a month of 53 micron sock filtering to get the levels down to clean for sps corals. As far as the size of the reactor, I'd have to say no. I have two of these - one for carbon and one for gfo. Even if you fill it all they way top the top with gfo, gfo can only absorbe phosphate until there is zero. The. The phosphate sits there until more phosphate comes along.... Mine work great at this btw. Happy reeling.

It is hard to say. The dispener can be adjust the opening for more or less to dispensed. But if you only want 4 to be dispense, I never try.

I am not using the diffuser, it is a very low flow. I just am using the single flow with output thing, have it pointed to the top of the water and can see small ripples. You can probably pull it out of the water and see it trickling/flowing.

Each container would have 4 cups or 2 applications. You need to dilute as much as possible with hot water. I used 2 times but I think if I think if I was patient, once would have been enough. It wasn't going down but I think it's because the gunk loosened up and were blocking the passage. After 2, I had to use a plunger and it quickly drained. It has been a month. No problem. I've used 2 tablespoons as maintenance every other week. I like the product.

The base can make a variable amount of stock, depending upon how concentrated you need it. The package says it can be used as dilute as one part base to 40 (yes 40) parts water or as strong as full strength. At the diluted strength it can make up to 5 gallons of stock. It is very reasonable, and tasty diluted. I haven't tried it full strength.

I have about a gallon and a 1/2 bowl and I added 1/4 teaspoon each time. I changed water every week because it made water really 'greasy'. My fish is still alive and well:)

It will dispense any small, dry grain. However, I am unsure if it would have any effect on the amount dispensed as I'm not sure how the calibration works.

It becomes two pieces when it pours. I use it twice a week and only use filtered water. It is working great with no water spots or build up but the only thing I wish was it was 4 ounces larger as it doesn't quite fill up my tea pot.

Question...did you follow directions, and place liquid in a bucket to dilute and distribute throughout the pool area? We use it about once a month and it keeps the water crystal clear...this does not replace your regular chlorination etc, but as an option for flocculants. Do you clean the filter several times while it is running after you use the product? It may take two or three times cleaning the filter to get all the flocculants out of the water.

I've only made small batches (8 to 12 ounces) of solution at a time using approximately 1/4 teaspoon or less at a time because the mixed solution doesn't keep. The stronger your solution is, the faster it works. I would guess the entire container would make 2 gallons, maybe 3, but that's just an estimate.

It depends on what's in the dispenser. If it's Cheerios then it will dispense more than a handful, but if it's lets say mini Shredded Wheat then it will dispense less than a handful.

Not sure I understand the question. There is an attachment that allows you to controllably pull in liquid and dispense the desired amount.

I use one dispenser with 3 chlorine tabs consistently. Have an 30,000 gal pool 18x36'.

It would depend on the amount of chlorine tabs inserted into the dispenser...or ask your local pool store (e.g. pinch a penny)
