chercm Posted October 16, 2010 Author Share Posted October 16, 2010 I converted to using zeo vit recently Quote Humble tank : Size: 4x2.5x2 ft - Display Equipment : Return 1 : Ecotech marine L1 Return 2 : Ecotech marine M1 CR : Skimz CM122 - Caribsea extra course media with Grotech magnesium Light : ATI 8x54W Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilsontantw Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 I've not tried zeovit before... Do u mean it caused some damage to the sps? The pink birdnest and green stag are very nice specimens.. pity they didn't make it. Do share ur experience on zeovit, as I understand, it's not a simple system (I could be wrong) and not cheap too. I'm still trying out dosing pump. So far it's been quite stable. Only trouble is that daily parameter checks are required for the first week and subsequently, must do weekly checks. Hope it helps in your journey to the dark side. Quote decommissioned 2.5x2x2 Videos: | | Your mind is like a parachute. It only works when it is open.

Eniram Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 Just to add on zeovit system, its a form of controlled bleaching of your sps. It removes all zooxanthella from your sps therefore to keep your sps alive you'll need to feed them very often. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just to share i heard many negative comments on tis product. tank clash, reduce the tissue to very thin layer removing of zooxanthella from sps sounds ..... I rather maintain its zooxanthella to keep its natural colours then I tried zeovit before~ i think the SPs colours rather look artifical~ I rather use the natural way to keep corals~ Cheaper and and hassle free Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chercm Posted October 16, 2010 Author Share Posted October 16, 2010 Look simple and neat, but i feel if there is more difference in the height of the rock scape will look much better. Cheer. thanks but i want to keep good flow without so many wavemaker and Joe_p tank is my inspiration : Quote Humble tank : Size: 4x2.5x2 ft - Display Equipment : Return 1 : Ecotech marine L1 Return 2 : Ecotech marine M1 CR : Skimz CM122 - Caribsea extra course media with Grotech magnesium Light : ATI 8x54W Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mengyang_neo Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 thanks but i want to keep good flow without so many wavemaker and Joe_p tank is my inspiration : Hi Joe_p tank is very nice and simple. I think if u going his direction then u sure have some space on the left and right of the tank. From your rescape picture, it seem like the left and right rock r very close to the side wall, and u should try to create some valley or make it into 2 mountain instead of using coral to try to link up the 2 mountain. Hee just some suggestion.

SRC Member tunicate Posted May 15, 2011 SRC Member Share Posted May 15, 2011 If you don't mind me asking bro, is there any reason why you're not putting the chiller coil in the return pump compartment? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
