Default Zeovit users unite!!

I am already showing amazing results with the zeovit system after one week. My corals are responding in a way I have never seen before and my water clarity is fantastic ........I can't wait to see the results in a few more months.

Anybody else want to share their results and pictures??

Jim

I've been considering trying either the Zeovit system or the Polyp Labs system, but can't decide which one. Both seem to have similar claims for results but have different approaches to achieve that. The polyp Labs seems to be more labour intensive to maintain, and that is a drawback for me. What is the long term requirements with the Zeovit? Do you need to continue dosing the additives or is that just a start up thing? It is not entirely clear in the online instructions. Also, how are you running the media? Did you get their reactor or are you using smomething else? And finally, where are you getting the products from?

Hey Ed..

I picked up the reactor and everything I needed from Gold's. It is around $300.00 for everything to start up. Albert sells all the additives as well.

Here is my Zeo tank it has been on it for about 2 years ,chin saw the tank when I was getting started with Zeovit .I am about to move so the tank has got to go soon.I am planning a 300 gal for my next place















72 bow front ,with a 30 gal frag tank plumbed to it ,the zeo reactor was homemade ,back then we did not have fancy manufactured zeoreactor s @ resonable prices ,Grotechs used to be 400$plus shipping just for the reactor.
Polyp extension was one of the things that made me reallyimpressed about this system.
There are 2x 400w mh 2x 54w t5 & 2x 96w pc on this tank ,skimmer is a small euro-reef from

This is the picture of plana table @ night after dosing coral vitalizer.

Although I haven't seen very much color change yet, I am finding a huge increase in polyp extension both in my sps and lps.

I just want to know where the line up for frags and corals starts when you tear this tank down so I can get in it!
Amazing pictures!

There is no line up Ruth
If there was you be infront of the line,I am keeping most colonies they are temporarily going to a couple of friends tankuntil my tank is set up .
However keep in mind I don't have any of those HI PROFILE corals ,most these corals were aquacultured pieces purchased from J&L ,some wild colonies from OA ,nothing fancy they did all color up after time .
the plana table is quiet a popular piece
nana you can find in any aquaculture shipment.

same with the rest I believe given the right envoirnment there is no such thing as ugly coral.

Jim
It will take some time for the system to deplete the reserve nutrient in your tank & then your corals will start to color up .
Increased PE is because of the feeding of the corals with the Mulm/bacterial planktoon.
You will get there just give it some time my friend.
Ed as Jim mentioned pay albert a visit he is running a system @ the store & he is a Zeo guru ,If I am not sure about something I call AL
