Dosing 2 part using a single pump

I want to try and dose 2 part solution automatically in my new tank and was wondering if I needed 2 seperate pumps (One for each) or is there a way to use a single dosing pump.

I am wondering if you can combine the 2 part solution and then dose the solutions?

My thought was I would combine the solutions using a t connector right before the pump but I am also not sure if I would get equal parts of the solutions dosed or if I would get more of one solution.

Any one try this before or should I just invest in the seperate pump and dose them using different pumps?

Thanks

i think when you combine them some sort of clumping thing happens and you get snow.... now im not positive. might have been 2 other chemicals
 
If you add the two together you form insoluble calcium carbonate, negating the purpose of adding them.

>A 2 channel dosing pump would be the ticket. I think I've seen them on here... <
