i did consider vodka. honestly, i opted for vodka for ease as well as the different testimonials regarding nitrate and phos numbers, as well as pictures of ppls before and afters.

Why did u start with vinegar and what improvements have you noticed

I started with vinegar, well cuz vodkas for me. Vinegar goes better with fish n chips. HAHA. I overfeed. I havent checked nitrates for prolly 6-7 years now. I just got sick of cleaning my glass so much and since dosing I dont have to as much. Yes I do run GFO as well. My colors are looking better since dosing as well. It could be something else contributing to that but i'm stickin with the vinegar dosing as the reason. But I have'nt seen my tank in a couple of weeks but my wife says it looks good still. I hope so, from 15G WC a week to being once a month when I go home for a visit.

Good to know , Madreefer!!! If i dont see considerable diff with the vodka, I'll re-think things!!

PS I'm not exactly happy about sharing my vodka, either. lol

I tried Vodka for a few months...and then switched to vinegar. The results with vinegar has been great for me. Corals seem very happy and less red stuff growning all over my tank.
