Hey Tony, I quite cold turkey. It was time to do my 80% change out, but got tired of it, so just removed it and bought the second Deltec fluidizer and put another 1L of pellets in at the same time.

So I haven't seen any ill effects, all is good. My Pink Birdnest keeps getting whiter and whiter as each day goes by and the pink is starting to really come out in it. It was brownish before, as you know I am not really testing nitrates and so on. Basing my results on coral responsiveness and happiness.

I can also say zoa's are popping color much more along with all my happy SPS

For those with LPS or Softies, I have some colt, brains, frogspawn, etc... I can say that all of them are also quiet happy with the BioPellets. Others have asked this, so I thought I should post. Good extension and fullness on everything.
