I have heard so much about carbon dosing (vodka, vitamin C, and sugar. I was interested in dosing with sugar. Can I get some feedback on this from anyone?

Thanks in advance

Most very knowledgeable carbon dosers I know preffer to use other carbon sources, like vinegar/vodka/biopellets/vit C. I think it's because it's harder to use sugar as far as stability is concerned and I think you can get more cyano outbreak with sugar.
 
There are tons of threads started on reefcentral about carbon dosing and some specific to sugar dosing. I don't have experience with sugar dosing, but have read alot and most people preffer either vodka/vinegar/biopellets. I dose vinegar and vitamin C together and happy with the result. different carbon source feeds different strains of bacteria, so some people like to use different sources of carbon for diversity. You should google more about them.
