Show pictures of tank on Biopellets vs Vodka

[dg3147]

Curious what sort of results people are getting in terms of sps coloration with NP reducing pellets. My results are mixed due to only doing vodka for a few weeks before changing to biopellets; nevertheless, here are my before and afters (over a three month period). My numbers NO3/PHO4 for sure are better, I am just not sure if the biopellets help with coloration the way that vodka did. I am hoping to see the reults of others, in terms of coloration, not algae or NO3.

Post your pics! Please comment on length of time on pellets and if vodka was ever dosed. It also might be useful to comment on flow through reactor, brand of pellet, quantity of media, and duration of use.

I run my pellets at 500 gph, 500mL, and been using them for almost 2 months. N03 are 2.5-5.0, PHO4 0. Vodka was about 1 month before switching.
