I've heard the same thing about euthanizing them. I always though any alcohol in your tank will kill your fish. Every time I have big parties I never let anybody near my fishroom.

"One for me, and one for my hommies..."

wakes up in the morning to find all your fish dead.

I cant believe I have missed this thread!!
When a marine system has been infected with ich, and the fish have been removed to QT, and the display system is left "Fallow" for a period of time, that is the ideal time to dose with Vodka. It acts as a carbon substitute, just like dosing a nitrate reactor. The vodka will feed the bacteria, therefore continuing the natural cycle.
