If it is straight vodka, then it be alright.

That vodka would be fine. Although, you could use the really cheap stuff instead and save some money. Leave the good vodka for yourself. ;)

Sonny,
I am finally up and running 6+ months in the making (100gal), and have used prodibio biodigest 3 times now (1st day up, a couple days later, and today) and marine bioptim with the second dose of biodigest and today. I also got a little carried away and also dosed prodibio reefbooster in between the rest.

Well I like the daily dosing idea of vodka+ MB-7 and associated AA's would you recommend I switch? or continue through my stock of prodibio?

if i stay with prodibio when if ever do i start with the vodka?
thanks,

Finish up your Prodibio. When I was using it I was dosing Biodigest every two weeks and Bioptim every week. once in a while I would dose in some reef booster.

The Bioptim would need to be discontinued if you were to start up vodka. I say just finish up what you have and then switch over to MB7/vodka if that is what you want to do.

so when i run out of Bioptim (like 2 to 3 weeks) i start up with vodka? i less Bioptim then any thing else, and will run out of it first.
 
Sunny... are you still running just Blue Plus and Aquablue bulbs?

I replaced all of my bulbs awhile ago and am currently running 4 blue plus, 1 super actinic, 1 fiji purple and one Aquablue...I am NOT happy with the color of my tank AT ALL!!! Also, some of my best colored corals have started to dull, for lack of a better word... not really browning, but their color is no where near as vivid as it has been...

what in your opinion should I change about my bulbs...I am not sure if I like the fiji purple or not...what do you think could be "DULLING" the colors of my corals and what bulbs would you change??

your tank is so amazing... I really want to get my colors back and even make them better..

thanks!

ps: you should change the last line of your signature from "Bacteria Powered!" to "Bacteria Guru"

Thanks for all the help.

Yeah, when Biotim runs out you can start up the vodka. Just be sure to keep up with the Biodigest dosing.

Hello :D

I am still running a combo of ATI Blue+s and Aquablues. Your current combo would no doubt look bad. I run 4xBlue+ and 3xAquablue Special, and something like that may be what you are looking for.

I say replace the Fiji Purple and Actinic for additional Aquablue Specials. That should do the trick.

Sunny,

You mentioned about the removing the detritus buildup in a sump tank with live rocks. How do you control the detritus in your main tank that is under your live rocks? I picked up a few random live rocks in my main tank and couldnt believe all the detritus that has built up over the months. Obviously I can not remove all my live rocks and clean all the detritus underneath it.

you tank is just mind blowing love it. I have been dosing the Vodka and Mb7 in my tank and I kid you not the water is crystal clear and my Sps are for the first time glow with color. I am up to .8 ml in my tank of Vodka and 4 drops of Mb7 and everything looks great. My N is .25 and my P is 0.1 to 0.3 I have been testing on Saturdays so this week will be my second test after the dosing started. Should I test more or is once a week good enough?
I would post pictures but after the ones you just posted I don't dare :)
Lmao great pictures hope mine look that nice in time to come.

Miami Orchid is soooo hard to get color...Sonny, congrats, I have only seen this coral at proper color in one other tank... WOW...
