I was wondering if zeovit additives would help? i have no more room for a reactor.
coral snow
pohls xtra
ammino acid

from the descriptions it looks like these 3 are what im looking for
can i dose these without a zeo reactor and still get desired results?
thanks for any advice

zeovit help me a bit. I only use the following.

XTRA
SPONGE POWER
AMINOS
CORAL VITALIZER

yes you can use those without a zeo reactor. Consider Prodibio if you have no room for a reactor in your sump.

Steve

ok thanks
no one else runs zeo additives without reactors ?

I do not use a reactor with the above additives i mentioned.

no reactor.....11 additives......:drinking:

Really Doug you dont drip Kalk or a cal reactor your tank is totally amazing man with you just doing additives

I dose amino, coral v, sponge power, extra, k balance & finally zeobak all w/o the reactor.:)

0 phospates, 0 nitrates

Good skimmer, GFO, the best carbon & biopellets. Calcium reactor keeps the alk and ca levels very stable.

And I dose with aminos, sponge power, coral vitalizer and coral snow.

No doubt yer corals will turn brown if the nitrates level gets too high. Carbon will keep the water colourless so that you can get the most out of your lighting. My skimmer probably strips a lot of things my corals would otherwise feed on. I do dose with homegrown phyto (don't tell the cops). I do shut the skimmer off for a few hours every time I dose. I don't hav a clue how much my corals are up taking anything I dose.

Thanks Mike......I dosed the same 11 additives to V1 of the tank and ran a profilux dosing pump for Ca and DKH (dosed Mg manually).....

V2 is being dosed the same 11 Kz additives, but I havnt even tested the tank for anything since it crashed.....

heres the list

Coral Vitalizer
Amino Acid
Sponge Power
Kaliumiodid-flour
Eisen
Stylo-Pocci Glow
K-Balance
B-Balance
Xtra
Strontium
Coral Snow

also dose Kent's Phytomax and Zoomax
