Default Re: Vodka

as a reefer myself, and dosing vodka in my tank, the premise behind adding vodka is to reduce No3 and Po4. The way they are eliminated in a reeftank is much different than a planted tank. Bassically the vodka(carbon) is supposed to boost bacteria, whih are then extracted by a protein skimmer, the bacteria eat no3 and po4. i would try it out. the vodka itself doesnt directly reduce no3 and po4. i have tried it for a few days but discontinued due to forgetting.
