I came upon this 3 for 1 accidentally a few days ago. About a month ago I started dosing .5ML of vodka per day to my 125g DT with a 90g sump for 2 weeks using an old fashioned syringe. Then I learned the basics of the OSC command for my Apex. This command allows me to dose my 1.1ML per minute doser for 30 sec. After another 2 weeks with my system doing well I decided to up dosing to 1ML per day. Since 1 minute of dosing from my doser = 1.1ML I decided to ditch the OSC command and just use a IF TIME command. So my mini program looked like this:
Fallback OFF
If Time 18:00 to 18:01 Then ON
I assume the apex would fallback to OFF after 18:01. Nope. 3 hours after I ran the new program I went to my fish room, which is separate from my DT, to do some more random maintenance. Yup, 3 hours = 1.1ML per minute X 180 minutes = 198ML of vodka.
That was 4 days ago. I did an immediate water change and I've been doing water changes everyday. The tank started clouding over the day before yesterday with the bacteria bloom. My yellow tang stopped eating first. My kole tang died today. Then my fairy wrasse disappeared along with my cleaner shrimp. My 7ish mushrooms are gone. The zoos are mostly receded. My purple stylo melted away. Most of my other frags are receded but look still alive. The tanks still looks cloudy after 4 days.
HOWEVER, if you want to look at it another way. Every bit of nuissance algae is gone. I had a little bit of ich on my male blue throat trigger that disappeared. And I had a fairly good sized aptasia on a frag plug I picked up from a coral convention that melted.
The price will be (probably) 2 tangs, a fairy wrasse, a cleaner shrimp, and 1 200g box of Instant Ocean Reef Crystals. What kind of chance do you guys think I can make some money off this REMARKABLE cure? Nah, let's spread the love and make the world an algae, aptasia, and ich free one!
STEP 1: Slowly start vodka dosing for a month and admire it's magic
STEP 2: dose 180 times what you dosed the previous day in 1 dose the next day
STEP 3: Watch nature do the rest.

Thank you!:beer:
