My tank has some LPS but two of the SPS in it take up half of the tank.

Very nice corals Lunar!!!

I have a few questions for you though...

1.) What bulb combo are you using specifically?
2.) How many gallons is your tank?
3.) How long has it been up and running?
4.) What's your Zeo dosing schedule?

I'm running Zeovit too, for 8 months now with some pretty good results so far! I've been reefing for over a decade but this is my first time using the Zeovit method. I've been pleased so far......

do you find the zeovit to be very expensive, or does the offset in cost come from not needing phosphate absorbers etc?

Thank you for such kind words.

1) 3 x 80 W fiji KZ, 3 x 80 W white NG KZ, 3 x 80 W blue plus ATI
But I keep looking for the best combination.
2) Volume ~198 US gallons
3)The tank was set up in 2003, but glass and equipment have been upgraded since that time.
4) I dose: zeobac 1 drop per week, zeostart2 1 drop in the morning and the
same quantity in the evening, coral vitalizer 5 drops every other day,
AA 2-3 drops every other day, kaliumiodid-fluor 3 drops per week, sponge
power 4 drops weekly, xtra 1 ml daily, k-balance when it's necesssary,
coral snow 2-3 ml weekly, stylo pocci glow sporadically, zeozym -
dropped after a while. These quantities aren't the same all the time.

regards,
Krzysztof

Currently - yes, because of nearly zero levels of NO3 and PO4. But usually I add 2 drops twice a week.

Getting started initially was the greatest expense, but not bad. Once you get started the actual amounts you use are so small that it doesn't really seem to matter. They will last you a long time at such small doses.

The results far out way any expense as far as I'm concerned!~

Wow, that's amazing!

See, Zeo doesn't cost that much for anyone sweating costs. Of course in todays turbulent economy, it's wise to fully weigh your options!

Ghostbuster's 40 Breeder

Just getting this one started; moved most of the coarl and fish from my 125 to fight a brown algea issue. I like the look and will keep them in the 40-breeder for a while.
