So how does everyone feel about it? I just started today on my 40b in hopes of starving my massive algae population. Pics will come later, but I feel like my tank was instantly more vivid. Now for the details
I tested nitrates and phosphates like every thing that I read said, I started with a dose of 0.2 ml (0.1 ml per 25g). 4 days from now I will increase my dose to 0.8 ml (additional 0.2 ml per 25g) and again increase 14 days later to the end state dose of 1.8 ml (additional 0.5 ml per 25 gal). My main intent in dosing vodka as stated above was to starve my new found algae problem. But also to gain more water clarity and enhance the colors of my corals.
I will be updating about once a week for everyone who is interested. As of now I am dosing kent marine tech cb and vodka. The vodka I am using is military special at 80 proof. My main decision in this is that it is $13 a half gallon, has no added colors or flavors, and is the standard 80 proof vodka.
