How much vodka do you use per gallon of water then to keep the nitrates down. I am getting ready to start up a 180 gl reef tank and would like better results this time.

That chart is awesome. I was wondering about the dosage as well. Thanks for sharing.

Your welcome Lairsey
I have been using vodka in my tank for the last four years, best thing i'v used for Phosphate & Nitrate.....before that it was Red sea Nopox but that was three times the price and not as good.

How are you doing Dave with this ....Have you started yet to vodka dose ?
Tbh I was using it but to me at least it seemed to be doing nothing me thinks it was a lot to do with the skimmer not working properly I will try again when everything has settled down

It will take a couple of weeks before it starts to kick in m8
I will start it again in a little while

yes, Red sea Nopox is not so good but Phosphate & Nitrate are amazing. They are cheap and are good for use. I am also using Phosphate & Nitrate and I have seen a much better result.

Hi MichaelLeslie and welcome to fish-keeping.com
It looks like you have a marine tank with posting in this part of the forum, it would be nice to know a bit more about your tank, like size of your tank what fish and corals you have in there and how long you have been in the hobby :fishy:
Once again welcome to fish-keeping
Regards
Gary.
