It also apparently helps with an alternative bacteria source that consumes low level Po4... Testing with an elos for N03 I get 0, & using a hanna checker for Po4 I get 0 as well, but there is a bit of cyano & a very small bit of algae, so I know that there are traces of both due to heavy feeding of fish & corals. Also the skimmer on my system is a POS it pulls out a fair jag, but it's just the stock skimmer for an RSM 250 which is beginning to be seriously not enough for the bioload in the tank. Just be careful with the vodka. I can't find the link to the site I used as a guide right now, but I'm happy with the method.
