Default Coral snow

So I've just picked up some coral snow by korallen-zucht. I was really hesitant at trying any of the zeo system. But what a surprise! I dosed early yesterday and did another dose today, and it really dies make a huge difference. The tank was much clearer, and the corals looked really good! Anyways just thought I would share!

I'm thinking of maybe trying a few more of there products, any suggestions on what to start with?

I was gonna say online you can get some pretty good prices with shipping! But I'm lucky that one of the LFS always has the same prices as j and l.

It's a great product! It truly helps with the house cleaning, sort of like turbo charging your skimmer.

I would not dose it daily unless you're combining it with ZeoBak to fight cyano. We dose it 2 - 3 times per week.

Just a suggestion, it's worked for us and I believe that none of their products should be dosed daily. ZeoVit is one of those things that everyone has different regimens for their tanks. Too much of a good thing is not good.

We run our shop tank (and my home tank) 100% Zeovit and nothing is dosed daily. Everything gets alternated. We dose Zeovit daily but nothing back to back, most products get does 3 x per week.

The only products that almost all Zeo users use are Zeolites (reactor), Zeostart, ZeoBak and ZeoFood7, these are used for the reduction of nutrients. Most everything else in their line is designed to tweak coloration and growth, so you can "fine-tune" your colors.

Here is a great guide that will help you get started http://www.korallen-zucht.de/files/z...glish_1_03.pdf
