None!

Next to ich issues, on this board the use of bio pellets cause reefers the most problems.

I don't understand why reefers continue to court disaster after reading so many bio pellet horror stories.

I totally agree! For the love of god, people, please stop using bioPellets! Shut them off and mail them to me. I will make sure they are disposed of naturally.



Disposing evil bioPellets since 2009 ---^

Seriously, send me your pellets. I provide this disposal service free of charge.

I just see so many successful sps reefers with outstanding tanks face problems and coral losses.
I mean if you have a nice sps tank, if it ain't broke don't fix it

Ya, it's painful to read about them for sure.. Sadly this is a hobby where we are constantly dumping things into our tanks that have the potential to nuke our tanks. You can easily nuke your tank with improper vodka dosing, improper zeoVit dosing, a bad batch of salt, a bad batch of activated carbon, bad lights, bad ATO, bad, doser, and on and on and on.

Also, for those sending me their pellets, you do not need to clean them. I provide that service as well.

Vertex for me. But just as with ich prevention and cure, if you don't do it right, lots of problems. However, if done right bio pellets are wonderful.

I inherited a very mature tank (10 years old) a few years ago, that had high nitrates (up to 100 ppm), high phosphates, and full of algae, detritus, and cyano. With the help of bio pellets and MB7 (a must IMO), it's been running clean for some time now with zero nitrates, near zero phosphates, and no algae or cyano problems. So the bio pellets definitely work, no question.... And my SPS is growing nicely.

Solutions are easy. The real difficulty lies in discovering the problem.

LOL,... and like Kien in Calgary, I will happily accept bio pellets from anyone in the Vancouver area, and promise to dispose of them properly...
