I am getting a reactor, will use it when my 120 comes on line. Built the stand 2 mos ago. Everything else is comming along slow

I run two reactors, one with carbon and one with GFO. I ran out of GFO a little while ago and haven't got around to getting more. I was thinking of putting zeovit rocks in one of my reactors. Is anyone else doing that? I asked a LFS what the zeo rocks take out of the water and his answer was - everything.

I use it 24/7 in a bag in the sump

I have the red stuff, it's in a reactor, but I turned off the pump feeding it. Guess I chose not to
It's not recomended with Zeo, I'm told...

I'm the same, running Zeovit so not anymore.I'm surprised to see people go more than 2 months before changing.
