Grain Alcohol?

My friend came by the other nightand he has a reef. He told me that he was using a new "technique" that sounded a bit strange to me (and unsafe). He said that he was running short lighting cycle 4 hours a day and dosing "vodka" aka grain alcohol and amino acids. I looked on the web for information and all I found was an article by Eric Borneman in which he sounds highly skeptical of the beneficial effects of dosing grain alcohol to bloom bacteria. I was wondering if anyone knows what this system of keeping is called. It has a name to like the "bla-bla method" I just couldn't remember what he called it when he was over.
