Can I use Acetic Acid for a Ca Reactor instead of pressurized CO2?

Like the title suggests, Since the object of adding CO2 to the Ca reactor is to lower the PH to between 6.4 and 6.7 in order to gently dissolve the media, why can't that same principal be accomplished with a vinegar drip, and have the added benefit of adding a carbon source to promote healthy bacterial cultures to boot?

Thanks in advance.
