![]() I originally looked at the Reef Refresh system and estimated my costs for my 500G setup to be approx $1800 per year. My original estimates for ZEOvit was approx $1400 per year. My first year costs have been approx $900 as once my levels came into check I cut my dosage's to about half. I am using just the basic 4.

![]() Can someone tell me all the positive results they've seen with zeo?
Do you see more growth, or is it just better quality growth (more color, thicker skeletons, etc.)? I hear a lot of people say they get better coloration out of their corals, but what kind? Brighter colors, sharper contrasts? |

![]() Not anymore:
Starter Ultralith kit is $88.99 An equivalent Zeovit kit would cost $77.96.

- Better water clarity, on par with ozone. - Increased stability. I feed as much as I want without algae blooms or SPS browning. - Better colors, brighter with more contrast. Browned out corals regain their coloration in short time frames (1-3 months for a full recovery, IME). - Better growth because I can feed more. - Increased vigor due to the supplementary feeding of bacteria to the coral. - With a super low nutrient system, I now have the option to play with and refine the coloration of my corals by using trace element solutions/combinations. You CANNOT do this in a high nutrient tank. You're just asking for algae problems. As far as testing goes, I test once every two weeks. Same as when I didn't have Zeovit. Either way, check this out: http://zeovit.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=76 All the scientific abstract you can shake a stick at.

Start with a few questions at www.zeovit.com. Look for responses by G.Alexander and Mesocosm. Both of them are extremely knowledgable. I believe both Hidden Reef and JL Aquatics carry Zeovit in your area.
