Here is my take on zeovit, short and sweet.

It can work, but is not necasary to maintain a beautiful, healthy reef. So why use it?

That is only my opinion and I'm not looking to get flamed but I just like to keep things as simple as I can while still producing the results I'm looking for.

Probably can't argue with that. I use it because I have it and started the tank with it. Although, I'm not sure how well I "use" it, as I often miss dosing. Mostly I have a reactor full of rocks that I believe helps. Believing is enough

I don't mean to be glib when I say this, but sometimes its about getting results that go a little beyond what you were looking for

Well got my reactor from fishstreet

Ordered on 21st Oct.
Shipped on 22nd Oct.
Reached Calgary post office on 28th Oct.
Picked up on 29th Oct.

It was very fast considering it was shipped from China. Here's the reactor after taking it out from the box:

Packing was extremely good with little to no chance of any damage I would say.

Now about the quality, I am not particularly sure how the quality is standing alongside the vertex but its all PVC and I am happy with the build. It doesn't come with any pump so I got myself an ehime 80gph variable pump to go with it. And consumes only 5w while for refugium, I would have to use atleast 10w of light so reactor would put any sort of spike in the bill. So, a very well made pump with a reactor made out of PVC, I don't think I can complain

One of the thing that should be noted is fish-street advertises it as 1.5ltr capacity but actually it can hold 1ltr. Maybe they use a different zeolite to measure or something, not sure. But I will be using only about 700ml so I am good with it.

Oh, the reactor itself was around $70 and shipping was around $40. All in all, I paid around $111 shipped.

I will be setting it up tomorrow after I do a 10 gallon WC since I need to remove the rocks from the refugium and clean up the sump floor. My zeovit journey starts tomorrow

Did it come with the extra foot as well?

LOL! I was just gonna comment on it. I think the big toe is used to regulate the amt of flow going into the reactor.

Nop. Got it locally. Shipping was getting way too expensive
