Your ZEOvit Reactor looks great.

When you set it up to run keep in mind the suggested flow rates in the ZEOvit Guide.

It is important to have sufficient water flow through the filter material (200-400 liters per 1 liter of ZEOvit®). We strongly recommend not exceeding the maximum flow rate of 100 gph per 1 liter of ZEOvit®, which could ndoubtedly have a negative impact. High water flow through the edia in already stocked tanks, especially during the start up of this system, has shown to cause slow tissue loss in SPS
corals. We recommend a lower flow rate through the media during the first few weeks of introduction of this method to a tank already stocked with corals. The effectiveness of this system in reducing nutrients could result in changes that are to abrupt when higher flow rates are used. However, corals need time to “adapt” to these new nutrient conditions.

Thanks everyone. I'll post its performance or any modes. Any of you that are serious about getting one I would help you out after the holidays, just shot me a PM. I enjoy doing things like that.

Thanks Tom, yes I,m going to use a bout 1L at about 100 gph and have it on a timer for 3 hrs on and 3 off for the first couple of weeks.

Great job on the reactor, do you mind if I copy your design for my own tank.
What is your high of your reactor.
What size of tank you have.
Thanks
