I hope others can replicate my results, before you believe anything I post try it for yourself and see if you like the effect on your zoas. Can't believe everything you read on the internet afterall ehh? If you are going to try this regiment start off slow, it's a large amount of nutrients added to the water and if you don't have the proper amount of sinks to absorb it you could run into a nitrate spike. Also keep in mind I do this in a dedicated zoa tank which lacks larger fish to disturb the zoas during the process. Quote:

It's obvious that you have had tremendous success with your regime. Those of us that have not had as much success can try out your methods to see if it improves our reefs. I admire your objectivity and reasoning in telling people to start slow if trying your method. Some will tell us that we are all doing it wrong and they are doing it right. Keep up the good work . BTW, I prefer soft corals to colored sticks as well. They are more interesting in my opinion. I lean towards ricordea but have a lot of palys and zoas as well and the reason I was drawn to this thread. Your method relates to my needs as well. Here is a mini thread about my latest tank. You will see how it relates to your tank and what I hope to achieve. http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/sh....php?t=1919342

If you are focusing on your SPS and looking for a good combo of color and growth I wouldn't dose what I'm feeding. I have also heard that LED's and zoas don't get along that well some times but again no first hand experience.
It's always a possibility your OD iodine, again a test kit will let you know. [QUOTE=marcin11379;17816642] Quote:

Oh and one more thing. Have you ever had any of your zoanthids morph into totally new color schemes?
