Biopellets, yes or no?

[kien]

ya, when I had both the 131g FOWLR and the 150g going at the same time (plumbed together) the biopellets definitely did the trick as I did have to feed the system more. Having said that, when I just had the 150g standalone I seemed to be doing alright without the biopellets as well. And yes, I've been hearing a lot about this prodibio business and that's part of why I threw up this poll, to see if everyone jumped ship from biopellets to a newer preferred method :-)

I use prodibio on my tank. I love the product. But do find arrange of 0-5 for nitrates. Though that could be a lack in cuc right now too

I tried 1/4 of the recommended minimum amount, the flow wasn't directed straight into my skimmer and I lost several montipora and acropora colonies that I had had for years. I'll never touch them again and I won't recommend them to anyone.

The output of my bio pellet reactor goes to my return pump.... I dont think that was your problem.

I don't believe it was specifically that either. But thats the only thing I did outside of the recommended procedure so I thought I should mention it. I believe it was the biopellets in general that caused me to go from this to this.
