![]() Nice build. Ill be following along. I've heard but haven't seen anybody start a tank with the Zeo system right from the get go. I'm really interested in seeing how your tank progresses. Do you plan on running Zeo for a long term or are you planning on slowly dosing back until you no longer use it? I've always wondered if it is possible to do that.

![]() Thanks!
I am planning to keep with ZEO. The cost analysis shows it pretty reasonable to continue and there is no refugium nor extra rocks in the sump nor a dsb or otherwise (all which would have required me to run a larger sump anyways) -- just the ZEO reactor and skimmer - which has less maintenance, and more display/growth to enjoy (at least that's my thoughts at this point) Progression is going well, will add livestock pics tomorrow - but currently the list is: - 2 clowns (one tiny ~1 inch, and the other mature at over 2"), - 3 chromis (medium size, say 1.5") - 1 barnacle blenny (1.5") -- almost forgot this guy ![]() - 1 porcelain crab - 1 blue tuxedo urchin (1") - 1 purple linckia (3" from longest tip-to-tip) - 8 turbo snails - 5 narcissus snails - 8 hermit crabs - candy cane (3 clusters, 14 heads) - frogspawn (1 cluster, ~6 heads, 5-6" across) - torch (1 cluster, 2 heads, 2" across not extended) - suncoral (1 cluster, ~30 heads) Added the most recent bits of that 3 days ago, going to add some more tomorrow (water quality is unchanged and ammonia/nitrite/nitrate was unmeasurably affected by the addition)... my last nano tank will then be nearly empty after tomorrow's transitions, leaving just the bubble tip and it's buddy (another 1.5" clown) for maybe Tuesday-ish. |

![]() Last-ish piece of tech (at least that I took a picture of so far) is the ATO reservoir. Not that glamorous, but important nonetheless. It's sitting in the same storage room with the mix bucket, and RO system. Simple enough system... connected to the RO system, and up to the TLF KW300 upstairs.
