For a tank of that size you may want to consider VSV with biodigest

 

[BrentH]

So vodka sugar and vinegar right? I can do vinegar scared of sugar Im still in the process of upping the vodka dosage also

 

[BrentH]

One thing is I also have been doing the biotim with the digest and vodka also

 

[BrentH]

I left for 3 days to Vegas came back to zero po4 and about 20 no3 my sps looked really pale and unhappy? I stopped the vodka for now and feed heavy trying to gt my po4 up a bit anyone notice low po4 and high no3 with pro digest/biotim

I have A po4 of 0.01 to 0.03 and nitrate of .5 if that is what you are asking?

 

[BrentH]

Do u only. Do biodigest and biotim? And do u have a lot of fish ?

 

[trueblackpercula]

Yes only Bioptim and biodigest only have two very small fish in my tank

 

[BrentH]

I will say this reef booster, dose at night. My lord does it have a low tidal smell. :-/

 

[trueblackpercula]

Yes reefbooster is super concintrated liquid of I really don't no what. But it does work very well and I use one vial every 15 days

 

[BrentH]

I'm going to do vodka like originally planed ... I started feeding more and po4 went up to 0.07 so hopefully no3 will start to come down now as well

 

[trueblackpercula]

The vodka works well but keep in mind it's only one source of carbon dosing.

 

[BrentH]

Only one is enough though right? I can add vinegar also tonight through my doser

Dumb question that I hope someone can help. I have 500 gallon total water volume. I have about a year supply of Biodigest Pro and Boptim Pro. I would like to do the drip and dose to dose daily instead of every 2 weeks, but the year supply is just the regular version vials. Is there anyway I can get the Dose'n Drop kit and reuse the Dose'n Drop "vials" that come with it and then just refill them every week by emptying my vials into the Dose'n Drop 2 vials?
