Hello All,
I've started dosing Vodka in my 90 gallon tank to try and help with algae. I'm up to about 3ml/day so far, increasing at 0.5ml per week. My question is if it would be OK to add the Vodka to my kalk topoff reservior? I topoff about 1 gallon per day with an aqualifter pump running about 10 times daily, so I thought it would simplify things if I added Vodka at 3ml/gallon the the kalk mix. My topoff container holds just about a weeks worth of kalk, so it would be simple to increase the dose each week if needed. It seems like this would not only keep me from forgetting to dose the Vodka, but would also spread the Vodka dosing more evenly throughout the day as opposed to 1/2 in the morning and 1/2 in the evening like I currently do.
So, anyone see any problems doing this?
Thanks,
Joe
