Absolutely. ZEO is just another way to get the same results you can with more "traditional" methods. IMO, ZEO tanks really are nothing that can't be achieved through other methods. Having said that, I think for the average hobbyist ZEO makes that beautiful, colorful sps tank more attainable. Especially for someone like me who hasn't had the best of luck with sps tanks in the past.

I had mentioned on RC that I had a green slimer that was brown for the three months I had it prior to starting ZEO and after two weeks on ZEO, it was bright green. I got a few responses along the lines of "well you shouldn't need ZEO to make a green slimer, green" or "then your not taking good care of your tank if you need ZEO to make your corals nice"...I found some of the comments really funny. There are a lot of reefers who seem to really dislike ZEO or see it as some kind of cheating
