Can I give my fish vodka?

Asked: Mario Gauthier, Last Updated:

NO. Your fish will die before you notice any "drunk" behaviour. I have vodka-dosed my marine reef tank before, which was about 1,500 litres in size. The typical dosage was about 5-10ml for this size tank, and the purpose of putting this in was to see what effect this had on the level of dissolved nitrate in the water.
