Dose daily eight drops Zeobak Zeofood 7 and aminoacid Stir zeolites every other day
Only other previous problem was with my tangs every tang I have bought recently has died except my purple tang and it's not ick it's a mystery there are no physical signs of sickness on them or odd behavior
Alk 115? As in 11.5?

If it's that high, you're going to have to let it drop down. Zeovit does NOT work past dkH 7.8 or so. Just stop dosing any Alk supplements and monitor changes.

Also, ditch Biophos. Non-compatible with Zeovit.
