Default Prodibio Question

Well perhaps a few questions . Thinking about going the Prodibio route on a new tank build/upgrade, still on the fence.

First
I know there are "start up" products but how would that change the dosing. I assume you wouldn't need to use the "clean" for 6 weeks to reduce nutrients or am I wrong.

Second
what (if any) equipment will this system make redundant or not necessary. I have read a few comments about not needing/ not running GFO (so one less reactor & pump) but what about carbon?? or Cal / Alk / Mag dosing?

Third
I know it is great for SPS, and to a lesser degree LPS, but what about softies, mushrooms, nems etc. Will they hate the ULNS system?

Forth (and a dumb question)
Can you get to LNS and not ULTRA LNS? It seems like the "ultra" aspect is dancing on the razors edge to a large degree. Magnificant when it works perfectly but right on the edge of failure (starvation). Or am I wrong?

since everything would have to be mail order:

any suppliers that ship to Ontario?

and

I would assume being a liquid it would not be good for the product to freeze.....I imagine I would need to stock up in the fall to carry through to spring???...yes/no?

thanks to any and all in assisting with this decision.
