You are correct, pellets are a carbon source, and basically almost impossible to overdose compared to vodka. But I found that I still wasn't getting the Pizazz I wanted and with the coral deaths. So the combo way I went running both. Probably don't need the pellets now, but oh well they are in.
There are differences. The pellets create a bacteria that reside within the pellet reactor. no were else... Vodka creates the same type of bacteria but within the whole tank area. So in my opinion if you have a huge bioload as I do, then maybe the pellets will help but not work fully, but the vodka can.
Just my 2 cents.
