Your situation sounds like mine. I didn't have a nitrate issue and phosphate was low enough that I could control it with a minimal amount of GFO changed monthly. I thought biopellets would improve growth in the tank, allow me to cut back on water changes and eliminate the need for GFO entirely. I tried a fraction of the minimal amount recommended and my results were horrible. The few soft coral that I had bleached as did my montipora. It took months for the soft coral to recover and my montipora are still struggling to come back long after.

Seriously, if it's not broke, don't "fix" it. I sometimes think more tanks go downhill from "tweaking" then from ignorance

If you're going to run anything, I'd say prodibio. I do have some algae issues, and as soon as I started with it the algae slowed down a ton. I've only been using it a short while, but so far it's great!! Super easy too. Once every 2 weeks. I also run GFO.... also super easy... change it once a month.
