New tank syndrome in an addition?

Once I finally got a reactor ready for it I gave up on the system because I was working out of province and the tank maintenance company didn't know enough about the Zeovit to adjust dosing when it needed it.

That reminds me...I should hook up that reactor again. I found it preferred to dose the basic 4 at full dose.

I've actually stopped dosing everything right now. Since I didn't set it up properly in the first place, I stopped everything. I've still got flow going through the reactor though... should I shut it down? I'm thinking of firing up the bio pellets for the time being until I have time to go pick up my sump and return pump... after shutdown (I'm working 75hours/week right now).

So you're saying that I should run the bak/start/food at full recommended dose? What's the 4th? Zeolites?
