I agree. To me, using hydroton in media reactors is far more "simple" than vodka dosing. Literally added the hydroton reactors 2 years ago and haven't touched it since. "Set it and forget it" at its most simple, imo. My nitrates have never been lower and my corals are thriving. Nothing to add. Nothing to adjust. It doesn't tumble or dissolve so I don't have to even replace my hydroton. It just keeps going and going and going

I do dose FozDown to control phosphates, but I prefer to gurgle my own alcohol supply, rather than feed it to my tanks
