Ive had the pellets going in 2 of my tanks for 1 week now. Both are using a TLF reactor with a mesh mod and a maxijet 1200. Each has a little less than 500ml of pellets. Both tumble nicely... but one tank is making tons of mulm.. enough that its coating the intake and exhault tubes, which then reduces flow and the pellets stop tumbling. I clean the hoses and its fine again for a day. The only difference I see in the setups is the one that is making so much white gunk gets alot of light from the refuge... any ideas??

Anyone noticing more mulm like crap coming off of their rockwork when they blow it off?

My corals seem to respond favourably to basting the rocks.

Soooooo. I had pretty much all decided I was going to discontinue Zeovit, just hadn't pulled that particular trigger as yet.

Then the good folks at Korallen-Zucht had to go and pull THIS:

I dunno.. !!! Fancy coloured bag!!! Pretty darned tempting !!!

(No, I'm totally being serious here. Or at least, I'm seriously interested in at least finding out how different they really are, packaging change notwithstanding. )

It is "more powerful" with "new composition" .. oohh.. ahhh. That has always been one issue that I've had with zeovit, on all the packaging they mind as well write, "Contains Stuff; just use it".
