I would be interested in listening. It's not like i'm asking about dosing to try to calm down a cycle or anything just planning/learning for future setup.
I ran a BP reactor in the past, had good luck with it ( I guess ) I didn't feed much, so to be honest I probably would have been fine without them and just do a WC more often. My next setup may involve way more feeding so I'm looking at different options to help take care or that kind of issue. The solid carbon dosing (biopellets) is a easy simple way to take care of it, but volka/vinegar dosing seem nice for one simple reason, lack of reactor/pump. I guess you could use a dosing pump for volka, but that just don't sound safe to me. I would rather do it by hand with a good syringe or something like that. It still seems that more people use volka over vinegar, maybe it has just been more widely used for longer. The things I read about people dosing vinegar over volka come down to cyano. Ethonal is suppost to feed cyano were acetate doesn't ( I believe ). I'm just thinking that volka/vinegar versus biopellets would be nice just because lack of extra equipment allowing more sump space for larger skimmer, etc.Originally Posted by Europhyllia
