Zeovit - Enough talk, show some pics

[Pan]

Hope this is not out of place, but i found if you can manage sps growth without zeo you get richer/darker colors. Zeo seem to make your tank look like a box of pastels you get from the art store. Mind you this is strictly from observing other peoples tanks I would like to see some pictures to.

I see a lot of pastel colors on the zeovit site, but the ones I noticed were using T5 lighting. The brochure has pics of rich deep colors.

one word..."PHOTOSHOP" Do you think they would put out a brochure that shows the wonderful results that can be achieved WITHOUT being sure that the picture is "perfect?" I don't think so...
Maybe I'll photoshop a pic of one of my corals...tell me which is real (untouched) and which is p'shopped...I'll post pics soon.

Ya, maybe some editing is involved, but I've seen these colors in person without Zeo. So the colors are possible. I'm asking to see real photos from people that are touting the system as a great thing.
So let's see what Zeo has done for you, or pics of why you don't need it and how you got there.

I can post some pics of my tank but I am a horrible photographer. I'm now 7 weeks in and have seen major changes, right now mainly in water clarity and reduction of Nitrates/Phosphates and in turn the bad algae.

I am starting to see colours in SPS. The best example so far is a scroll that I purchased totally brown and is now turning green and purple.

Jumping on to see some of these photos. I too have wandered around the Zeo forums, and have seen similar things.

I found I could get lots of nice deep and varied colors myself with no additives, just a large bioload (its all about the fish poop!), and maintaining my Ca, dKH, and Mg levels with reactors.

Ok....just some playing in photoshop...don't believe what you see in ANY ad or brochure








And of course...some nice pastels ..Rushed doing this, so it's not the cleanest work I have ever done (actually, some of the poorest) but you can get the idea

Are you seeing your SPS coloring up, or are you seeing new colors?

Jason, you're using this, right? I'm interested in your thoughts so far. Are the claims accurate? Or at least worth the almost $400 to get going?
