I personally was running Pellets and the Zeolites, but with some of my problems I have been having, I have removed the Zeolites and ceased dosing of Zeobac. I haven't seen anything negative happen because of not using it anymore, in fact I am now seeing coral growth recently. Can't say it was from removing things, just outlining what I have done.
Personally if you are running Pellets, I wouldn't use ZeoBac or zeolites with it. And using Zeobac without the Zeolites, I don't recommend either.
You may want to go to the Zeo website and talk with some of the guru's there.

wait, are you saying zeo bac is made up of magical bacteria that only likes zeolites instead of any carbon source?
fyi i use both, zeo bac and pellets
ever since ive used both together everything has been at zero, water has been crystal clear, cyano has actually started to disappear
but mind you i dose half of what all the zeo products says
