I welcome all feedback It’s interesting how slime shows up in some tanks and not in others. Update... chaeto is still alive (slow growing as I haven’t noticed it any larger) and dosing 18ml vinegar. The slime has all retreated, the filters in between the baffles are not plugged and nitrates are still a little high. I’m going to continue to see if the slime returns with the sole use of vinegar as my carbon source.

Definitely not the chaeto lol. When the slime was around it would just get stuck in the chaeto ball and kill it. The vinegar seems to be working well, it is a lot slower in reduction then the vodka though. Was do No some reading and ethanol is 8 times more of a carbon source then vinegar. My thought is I will stay slow and steady adjusting my vinegar dose each week.

Are you still running a NO reactor or just straight vinegar? Think running both would be bennificial?

Dosing the vinegar once daily. Also have a chaeto ball in my sump (not seeing anything superficial from it) and running GFO. Will keep this thread updated on a weekly basis for observations and parameters.
