Hello..
I have a mixed reef 160g water volume....6 years old. I don't grow macro well. I run vodka and dose phosphate RX 6 drops weekly.

Vodka dosing by BRS doser... That runs for 8 minutes daily.

Coral growths affected by Rx...I think.
So planning to increase vodka and reduce Rx...

Skimmer output is very dark.

My question is: What's the maximum vodka I can dose for 160 gallon water volume? I'll make sure I don't exceed the limit.

Thx Kris....

~14 mL is suggested in the chart below. My rule of thumb is 1/8 mL per gallon.
