Hi, I have been doing some research on VSV dosing, all was talking about how much a difference it can make by ADDing it. my question is what if I stop dosing VSV, would corals all be pissed off?

I am thinking of dosing VSV, but have scheduled a 2 weeks vacation and I don't want the caretaker to do dosing.
 
I can ask my neighbor that's drinking vodka daily what happens if she stops :)

I would wait until you get back
 
Mysterybox (Ralph) is our resident Vodka Dosing Expert (not dosing himself, but his tank). You may want to PM him. He is very helpful.

not a good idea to stop it after starting it. That could lead to serious issues as your bacteria that has built up to eat your nitrates & phosphates, now has no food.

So..........

1. start when you get back
2. use a precise medical doser
3. use an auto doser like aqua-medic or whatever
4. pre-portion 14 doses for caretaker
 
is VSV dosing and denitrator/phosban reactor redundant?
which one removes nitrate/phosphate better?

there are so many to learn once you step out of the beginner's level.

yeah like chemistry

once established the bacteria you create and feed with the VSV dosing should eat all the nitrates, I think you should turn the denitrator off when you start vodka dosing
