Exactly. I'm dosing coral vitalizer, sponge power, and amino acids....but that is the extent of my Zeo usage. I don't subscribe to their bacterial ideas.

I'm also accepting that all three of those items smell like acetic acid. (Vinegar)

I ran zeo for almost 1 year and it worked great for sps. It pulled allmost all the po4 out of my tank. Its a great system I think.
I got tiered of dossing once to twice aday, work gets in the way. The colours in some of my coarl got brighter and some died, soft coarls.

Default Zeo

I dose the full system now & the reactor... 2 months in and i have seen a slight improvement. Theres no set guidance with regard to dosing it's much more trial and error. I think i may be over dosing one or two products though as i have been getting a brown algae appear over the substrate. Could be my lighting though as the bulbs are due for a change...

I have committed to run the system for a year before i make any judgments though
