Oh, ok...from what I have seen related to vodka dosing as compared to other forms of carbon dosing that are more constant like biopellets, vodka...
I would continue to use whatever filtration you have in place, the scrubber should be able to get started no matter what, but there are instances...
The "Slot Pipe" is one of the key components of an Algae Scrubber. The purpose is to create a thin, laminar sheet of water flow across both sides...
This is referred to as "arcing" and will subside once you get some growth established. But for the initial ramp-up, you don't need a ton of flow,...
I recommend 6 o'clock (arrow pointing straight down) for the starting point, and 9-15 hours/day is fine, some screens take longer to get going....
I think there isn't much for the scrubber to consume, so it will probably take longer for GHA to get established. So I would reduce light to 8...

Nitrate and Phosphate, possibly others, essentially detritus buildup. How long has your tank been set up? Pics of tank and scrubber setup?
Are you cleaning at all? I would not be. Just let it grow, you have plenty of light/intensity, you don't have to worry about roots dying off or...
You can try to remove it manually, but that may be difficult depending on the type of growth. Scrubbing it with a brush seems like a good way but...

I thoroughly bench-tested the Rev 4 L2 before rolling it out, and then I took care of my waitlist customers first before swapping out my own...
