Water=1.025 Water Temp=80'C, this doesn't fluctuate that much PH=8.3 ALK=7-8, based on Zeo... When I had removed the zeolites I raised it to 10-11, but now back down to 8ish Ca=400 Mg=1350 K=400 Nitrite=0.02 Ammonia=0.15-0.2 Nitrate - I don't know, need to get another kit. Please note all test results above were done yesterday. I use only ELOS test kits. Fish: - Sohal Tang (medium size) - Blonde Naso (small) - Hippo Tang (medium) - Yellow Tang (full) - Blue Throat Trigger (small) - Foxface (full) - 2 Barred Rabbit (medium) - Maroon Clown - Flame Angel - Potters Angel - half a dozen small fish (chromis, cardinals and 1 mandarin) As you can see I don't have many fish, but do have larger species. Now they are not big by any means yet, but when my sohal tang POOPS, well he really lets go.  Cleaning Crew: - hundreds/thousands of snails. What can I say, they are really breeding, lots of little guys every night that come out. Also about 150-200 larger snails that I had purchased in the beginning. - 4 sand sifting stars (3 I just got today) - 1 sand sifting shrimp (just got today) - No cleaner shrimp, they keep disappearing, I think I have a mantis/pistal shrimp based on the clicks I here sometimes. Stopped buying as it was a waste of money - 2 long spine urchins - 1 blue star - 1 Coral Banded Shrimp - 1 Purple Clawed Lobster - what a waste of money, I never see him, but if I search I can find him, but he never comes out. I never really stopped the Zeo, but again I don't dose the recommended, as even before the pellets, I found the recommended too much. Also the Zeo gurus say that it is also true (I frequent zeovit.com). So I currently dose about 60% of the recommended for everything.

After researching on the zeovit site, they recommend not dosing Food7, Bac and Start when using the Pellets. So I think I should not use anymore Food7 or Bac, and see what happens. Also they say to remove the Zeolites, but should I? Can I just leave them but not add the ZeoBac?
Your thoughts?
