If you get your tank to ultra low nutrients, you will see less coraline for sure. Many of the ZEO tanks are proof of that. Heck the ocean is proof of that. I was amazed by how little coraline was on the Great Barrier Reef when we were there 3 years ago. Some of the other dives in Australia though were in lagoons and we saw much more coraline and just algae in general. So it certainly needs some nutrients to survive.
Many ZEO tanks though don't get all the way down to that ultra low nutrient level I don't think, so there is coraline. I also don't think running ZEO would kill off all your coraline.
I actually really love your tank (looks very natural to me) and kind of like all the coraline. But I only have to check it out once in a while in pictures, not clean it every month
