Vodka is just a carbon source for the nitrifying bacterias and the zeolite (clinoptilolite) for a place to let the bacterias grow on. I shake the zeolite once a week to make new room for new bacterias, the bacterias who are shaking of consumes by the corals. I dose 7 ml vodka per day for the moment.
Here is some pics of the technique.

It's not difficult at all. There is good range of corals and fish here in Sweden.
This brings up an interesting point. I think those of us in the U.S. sometimes forget that we didn't invent the hobby.
I remember meeting Albert Thiel at a local fish store about 20-25 years ago. I think he was amazed at how backward the hobby was here. He was telling us about how easy it was to keep live corals and about the importance of live rock in the system and metal halide lighting. We were mostly all FO with dead coral skeletons for decorations back then. A lot of us here didn't have a clue.
It would only stand to reason that there would be good availabilty of corals in Europe, since they have been at it longer than us to begin with.

Now that's something you don't see here every day. How about a shot or two of how you are using the zeolite?
