    In my opinion. The bulk reef supply 1.1ml/minute doses are. As long as you have a way to control them. Like digital timers or controller.
    Before I had an Apex I used digital timers.
    There's a lot of good doses out there. Kind of depends on what your looking for.

    vinegar is a carbon source for bacteria,they grow and consume nitrates and phosphorus.you can dose vinegar,vodka or sugar.or a combination of any of the three.
