Day 5 of Vodka Dosing, noticing brighter corals already, but the big change...Skimmate. Huge ammounts, the stinkiest I've ever experienced and lots of it.
This is TWO DAYS worth. Only doing two a day feedings, Catherines food, small ammounts:  Remembered to Finally clean lights. Pic doesn't show it too well, but Left side isn't cleaned yet, Right is:  Tank with actinics on (dear lord how I need those corals to start filling in faster...where are the coral steriods at!?) :  Metal Halides not completely warmed up:

The hardest part is waiting for frags to fill in.
The most disturbing thing is that the skimmer appears to be pulling skimmate out of dry rock! I missed your dosing plans, are you working in vinegar and sugar into the fray or just sticking with vodka for now? When I was reading into this some of the suggestions involved using those as well. I was wondering if a person could just mix in a little sugar and vinegar into the vodka and just dose it all at once or would that degrade the vodka somehow.

Right now just sticking with Vodka following the guidlines in the RC Magazine.
Lorenzo, go to the old issues of RC mag and hit the chemestry section...it should be in there somewhere. It even has a nifty little chart for quick refference. Right now I'm dosing 0.8mL Vodka (approx 100 gallons water volume) once a day. In 2 more days that bumps up to 1.3mL I believe...

See...thats how it starts....first its .8ml and the tank is like "I can handle it"...then its 1.3ml and the tank is all "bring it on!"....next thing you know the guy at the vendors is like "that Randi sure has a problem"....
I cant deny that skimmer cup though....looks really nice and nasty.
