Zeovit is basically a system to achieve an Ultra Low Nutrient System (ULNS) using bacteria that lives on the zeorocks. You feed the bacteria food, then the bacteria consumes unwanted nutrients, then the bacteria poos out stuff that is useful for corals. You then feed the corals certain things like amino acids etc...

This is basically how it was explained to me in simple terms.

There is a zeo reactor that the rocks go into, they have to be agitated/cleaned daily (by pumping the reactor)

I have only been using the system for 2 months, and I have found it to be successful so far (my phosphates/nitrates are undetectable). Corals are growing fast.

Hope this helps.
