NoPoX to vinegar ratio?

[AdamNC]

If I were to switch from NoPoX back to vinegar, what is the ratio. For example right now I'm dosing 1ml of NoPoX daily. What would I dose with vinegar for equivalent?

4 ml/day of vinegar would be roughly equivalent.

I may try that thanks. Almost out of NoPoX and I've got half a gallon of vinegar just sitting around.

You might swap to 6x as much vinegar over a week or two.

I'll error on the low side first. Trying to keep No3 about 1.5-3 and the NoPoX did a good job at it but at $15 a 500ml bottle compared to $3.00 a gallon of vinegar.

I think i will be doing the same thing, Switching from Nopox to Vinegar. Is this a good idea? Or is Nopox doing something for me that Vinegar isn't?

I haven't used NoPOx, but when considering it, I found the following recipe for making it:
Nopox: for 1L is 590ml Vinegar and 410ml Vodka

I actually just decided to stick with the NoPoX. I'm only using 1.5ml a day now to maintain 1.5 ppm No3, so a 500ml bottle lasts me quite a while.
