For comparisons sake, how many mL per day do you dose, and, what's the total volume of your system?

I've just started myself, and am currently dosing:
6mL per day @ 210g total system volume.
 
When I was dosing vodka I used, IIRC, 15-30 mL per day in my system with a total of about 250 gallons total water.

I switched to vinegar and have dosed anywhere between 75 and 410 mL per day (which might equate to about 10-50 mL of vodka per day), with the high end clearly being too much as the water got cloudy and a few corals browned up, probably from excess zoox.
 
I have 90 g total system and 5 ml keeps me at just about 0 nitrates. The max I ever dosed was about 20 ml, them I was slowly able to cut it back to 5.
