You are correct, pellets are a carbon source, and basically almost impossible to overdose compared to vodka. But I found that I still wasn't getting the Pizazz I wanted and with the coral deaths. So the combo way I went running both. Probably don't need the pellets now, but oh well they are in.

There are differences. The pellets create a bacteria that reside within the pellet reactor. no were else... Vodka creates the same type of bacteria but within the whole tank area. So in my opinion if you have a huge bioload as I do, then maybe the pellets will help but not work fully, but the vodka can.

Just my 2 cents.

You need to calculate the actual water volume. If necessary estimate on the low site to be safe. It doesn't matter what the size of the tanks are, if there are sumps, etc... It is the actual amount of water.

Then use the .1ml per 25 gallons to start and follow the recipe.
