So I have hit the stage where all my water parameters are within normal ranges and stable and I have added a few SPS Corals to my aquarium along with a Clam. But I would like to implement something to address the phosphates and nitrates within the water column without having to run two separate GFO and Carbon Reactors. So have been thinking about a Biopellet Reactor, Prodibio dosing, Zeovit Nano dosing or a combination of the above. Does anyone have any experience with this or could make any type of recommendation. I have heard such great things about the Zeovit system in general but I don't have the space to run the equipment necessary in my aquarium without adding a sump for a full blown Zeovit aquarium. However from my reading the Zeovit Nano is just the additives without the use of the Zeolites. Any food for thought from anyone?

    I'm surprised no-one has answered this by now. Where are all the reef addicts?

    If your parameters are in check, you don't need to use anything. If you are seeing the numbers get harder to control, then you may opt to employ an additional system. I like running biopellets in combination with Prodibio dosing. I haven't used GFO since 2005.

    well I have only had experience with biopellets but considering that I am still not sold on biopellets myself i thought it best to leave it to a pro :P

    I've had friends use Zeovit, including the local fish store nearest me. Everyone tells me the same: It's expensive, and you have to keep up with your dosing very carefully. A couple of them stopped using it, and their tanks suffered as they rebounded from change in direction.

    Thank you Melev. Well at this point in my life I don't think I have the schedule to accommodate the dosing regimen so I might just use Prodibio solely.
