Oh Zeo works Great but IMO replacees a lot of your Natural ecosystem,and once you stop using it is when stuff starts to happen, 2 of my reefer friends that stopped using it after using it one for 3 years and the other used it for 1 1/2 years there Parameters got so out of whack there tanks crashed, Like Vishnu's tank he used it for only a few Month's and Tommy has been fighting High Nitrates for about three month's now, Ammonia,Nitrites were high the first month then Nitrates sky rocketed and have been high ever since even with random water changes, it's like we started the whole tank from scratch.
I have Moved many established tanks and sure your going to go threw a mini spike and depending how long it takes to get it set back up the longer set back you may have but we didn't waste that much time getting Vishnu's tank set back up and the Bio-load is and 1/8 of what vishnu had and Tommy is still fighting trying to get parameters in check.

Corals have nice color, but I think the tank looks kinda fake. All the frags seem to be the same size, like they were all bought and placed in the tank.

there are tons of tanks like this and i just dont get how people say they dont think it works.

I Know it works, works great I have read and know lots that use it myself I just know how it can really throw things out of wack that stop using it too, I'm just commenting on those that have used it and stopped.
Just some things to look at before one gets to far into it, anyone that Knows me knows I like taking a Natural aproach to things. and if you look at some that do use it and the complex systems and equipment there using along with Zeo produces I have to be a realist to I can't afford it.plus with the maintenance one has to keep up using these produces stability is the key factor to maintain a healthy environment anyways so if you have ALK,CAL,MAG, K, stable and one keeps up with lower Phos,and 0 nitrates. naturally colors will pop out with or with out using any supplement like ZEO if not monitored or maintained your not going to get the results your looking for anyways. If I was totally anti ZEO I wouldn't be offering these produces to Andre which should be there Monday if not let me Know.but I know he has a good concept on stability and good husbandry skills that's why I thought of him when I came across these Items. and can't wait to see the results he gets from using them.
