Hey, I have done pellets, I have also done vodka with pellets.

Vodka is very easy, it is just a matter of patience, and daily persistance.

I don't do the vodka anymore, and just recently even removed the Pellets to go back to a refuge... Even now I don't even run Carbon anymore.

I know others will tell me that I finally got some sense into me for removing the pellets. But I will still claim they do work for algae and keeping low parameters for your bad stuff. I am just trying the KISS method (You all know what that means, I hope).

Also, FYI... I am seeing white tips on my corals, since removing the carbon. Great polyp extension since adding the Macro Algae Refuge. So time will tell, I may get algae in my DT again, but I am tired of losing corals and the ones that aren't dead haven't grown in 2 years.

So, if you want to talk, give me a PM... As many know, I have tried, experimented with many things over 3 years. I can give you my failure and success stories.
