The reason being this. More or less I've been off the zeovit system anyhow since I left for vacation and kind of never really got it going again after coming back. So I hadn't been dosing or agitating it much for two weeks. My 4 year old kid today was playing with my nitrate meter and it jogged my memory to calibrate it as it's been a while and do some tests. I found that my nitrates are no longer zero but instead hovering around 6 or 7. Ok, not bad, but, being that it was zero a while ago, not great either. So I checked the pellet reactor output and it still seems to be zero. I checked the zeovit reactor and it's outputting 9.

So ... that's not what I want to see. I realize that it's my own fault for letting the zeolites maintenance routine slide a little, but I think it's the impetus to fully commit to the pellets. As long as the pellets stay fluidized it seems that they are far less work overall and no messing around with additives to keep the reactor working as advertised.

Sorry Zeovit! I gave it my best shot.

Tony, I have already done this, its been about a week... running 2 Deltec 509 Fluidizers now, they are inline with a MJ 1200 running 2.5L of NP BioPellets.

I am a very happy guy.
