If you are looking for detailed info on Zeovit you should go to their forum (www.zeovit.com) and check it out as it is a very dynamic system to run. Here is a link to the General guide.

Cool thanks dude, I will check it out. It's a part of my research for my tanks.

So what's your tank looking like so far?

It's coming along well. Check out my album on it, let me know what you think. Having a tiny red alge problem right now though.

There has been lot's of talk but no one has answered the question. I want to know more about the Veovit system such as procedure's, product and benifit's. As well as Seachem's Reef Builder as such.

Hey Greg

the zeovit system is a bacteria based system that reduces nutrients in your aquarium.
the sytem uses zeolites (a special absorbant rock), which good bacteria can grow on, they are in a reactor and are shaken daily to relase a mulum and this mulum acts as a food source for corals. you add bacteria and bacerta food and coral food, small amounts of each to get the system going, and then adjust depending on your needs. heavy stocked tank, low stocked tank.
soemtime you need more or less of something, but mostly its consistant.

after a few weeks or months you can add other supplements to feed your corals, to give them more energry, and more color, and to replace those that have been consumed or removed. (carbon)

skimming, carbon, lighting and stable water (ca,kh,mg,salinty,K+) are a must.

this is the short answer of it, the system can get pretty in depth.

and for dosing, i am using reef builder to keep my KH in check (nightly) and reef advantage calcium (morning) both by seachem.

Nevermind, just looked.

I wouldn't use any additives until you have more corals. Most of the products on the market (amino acids, etc) become waste without the requisit target biomass to take advantage of it. You could dose less, but then you run into dilution/capture issues.

Just pay attention to your basic parameters for now and spot feed whatever you can, whenever you can.

Ya I was just reading the users guide that extreme sent me. My head is spinning,lol. But it will be good info for when my tank has been up for a year. My water parameter's have been constant at the required level's since start-up of the 155 and even before in the 2 - 65's. I am going to try out the Reef Builder it help maintain levels. Is that a good place to start John?

That is kinda what I was thinking, I definitly need more coral for the Zeo. But wanted to do the research just so I knew what it was all about. Anyone want to donate to my coral charity, lol.
