Ok thank you.

I have been planning on going back to the full zeo system. Just need to make the change slowly

Good plan, only bad things happen fast in reefs. :razz:

I like the ZeoVit system because I like tinkering, but on the flip side, I don't like tinkering to be required when I don't want to tinker. :lol: So now I use Prodibio (imo doesn't really qualify as a carbon dosing system) and when I want to tinker I clean all the pumps instead. :D

I was feeding acros with AA cv along with Reef roids.. I did find that po4 jumped significantly. I stopped with the feeding. Po4 has remained steady at 0.04.
I am of coarse still using zeo food which also contains aa.
I would like to continue feeding just need to find the proper amount to feed without contributing to nutrients.
When feeding reef roids or fauna zoo I won change filter sock a hour or two after so food didn't have a chance to break down I socks

Much appreciated Mindy and Denny

Denny the only bacterial film I get is in return pump lines. Which is dislodged when I restart return pump after feeding.

You're welcome. :)

Why not put some ZeoLites back in, remove the GFO, and adjust the ZeoStart up and down to adjust to the amount of food you want to feed? Maybe this is your your plan anyway since you said you want to get back into it?

ZeoVit forums are a place to ask these questions too.

I'm on the zeo forum! It was suggested to run a little gfo passively slowly removing a little more every week until the zeolites are colonized.

Yes because the bacteria by its self will be a slow drop in phosphates , after a while gfo may or may not be needed. Depends in your imports

That's a good idea.
