Just want to inform people of my findings on vodka dosing, it takes a while to build up the bacteria populations but once established it reduces very effectively
I did this for a month to get my nitrates below 10 and now I only dose 30ml when nitrates reach 10 and the next day they’re 3-4 and the skimmateis 5x the norm
I must add my po4 reduces as well but this will spark an argument
 
Rather than a weekly 30ml shot I’ll add it to my ato that takes a week to empty, should in effect keep nitrates at 3-4
Let’s see
