Oh and I wanted to add: The more I research and learn about Zeo. It seems every tank needs a diffrent dosing regime in the end. The zeo guide is really just a guide to get started.

Tony. I PMed you regarding your dosing. Didn't want to drag this thread into a Zeo dosing thread

I was basically advised to lower my dosing, primarily zeo start for a week. I'm three days in since the switch and I have noticed a reduction.

In the first 4-6 weeks of zeo my green film algae was almost non-existant, but in the following 3 weeks it has been back a bit.. nothing near what it was before I strarted zeo though.

I totally agree with you though, the guide is just that, I think every tank will dictate it's own dosing requirements, and the only way to really find that out is through trial and error.

Lando i just finished reading your entire post and i have to say you did a fantastic job. I love the quality of your pictures by the way. I hope my new tank turns out half as well as yours.

I am bringing this thread back from the abyss.

Since quitting my day job in Aug08 to work for Marine Aquaria a lot has changed on this tank. I shut it down for about 6 months due to plague algae problems that I did not have time to address then. The good news is I have rebuilt and Joe Reefer's Inwall 120 V2.0 has been running for 3+ months now. Pictures to follow............
