Are you planning on going full zeovit?

No.
probably just a few of the dosing products

Then you dont need any of the products you mentioned. Those are basic zeovit ulns products. You should look into products likes coral vitalizer, xtra, coral snow etc.

You can actually use them to run a system the same way you'd use the other probiotic product lines out there. I use to run bak+start3 combo on my nano, sans reactor. Worked great.

But you would be needing zeolite too right?

There are 2 parts to the zeovit system

Part 1 = Nutirient control. This is what zeobak, zeofood and the zeolites (in the zeo-reactor) does. Use of activated carbon also. Idea is to get you reef tank to near 0 nitrate and phosphate (or Ultra Low Nutrient System).

Once you have reached ULNS look at Part 2

Part 2 = Color tweaking your corals using coral vitalizer, pohls, aminos, ect.

There are also other zeo products that don't fall into either category. And some people use zeo products (such a coral snow for cyano/clear water) on their own.

Google Zeovit guide for the official pdf. Its a good read to give you a basic understanding.
Zeovit has there own forum also.
