  5. alfa, i'm using a simple DIY 838 (which i call Gavyfoamer!) haha waiting for SG pools to give me the extra cash for Deltecs but i've been sufficiently impressed by it's performance. i've owned a F2001 H&S before and obsiously we've seen the euroreef as well. it's difficult to pin-point which is better or accurately compare makes. so chill out and be happy with what u have. the fact that deltecs cost cheaper than h&s makes it easier for buyers to choose! at least i know i'll be getting a deltec if the current prices remain. else i wouldn't mind considering a h&s. very curious le...can someone do a side-by-side comparison? haha

    kh

    I think Reef Builder frm Seachem is good. If possible, do dripping
  16. a pic tells a thousand words show us one and we can guide u. u zeovit user right? watch the KH. expert WL told me abt zeovit ###### up KH on the system sorts of kick in. KH usually causes STN. my montis kenna liao. checked my KH. only 4.5 after i came back on biz trip!!!
  17. WL, for a hardcore reefer like u, how abt adding/modding a 'auto-cleaner' will save u trouble from rushing to toilet every 2 days and gives u time to pump the zeovit reactor more times! haha
  18. not necessary will tangs feed on such. if possible, take the rocks out and scrap it off. if you're using a refugium, 'seeds may be sown' in your main tank even if u have gotten rid of those. alternatively, reduce photoperiod. gd luck.
  19. maybe tell us more abt your intented livestock so we can help out?
  20. Well. I have mixed feelings abt Zeovit. For 1 yr, I've been fighting diatoms on sandbed. Too poor to use RO/DI Using an oversized Beckett, I still fought relatively high nitrates (5-10ppm). Due to my bz work schedule and lack of time to provide more TLC, I ignored these readings and carried on stocking up. Strangely, most of my SPS appeared decent except for a few RTN or brown-out. Started Zeovit 2 weeks ago at 50% dosage. Probably increasing later as I monitor the situation. After my 4th day of use, I came back from work to a wonderful surprise. Diatoms gone!!! Can't remember on which day, my brother was asking me if I did anything to the tank cos it looks clearer!!! Then onwards, I took a couple of SPS for reference. 1. Green Humi 2. Peach Hacyinthus (is that correct spelling?) 3. Dark Purple Tenius 1. Lightening. Hopefully I can see 'another colour'? 2. Darkening a little. But noticed growth. Never been successful in keeping it. 3. Lightening big time. It has this amazing blue/purple glow. During this observation, I lost 2 colonies. One is definitely due to the Zeovit effects while not sure if the Digitata is responding poorly to my tank conditions or Zeovit. Clams however dun seem to like the new 'situation' and I've got Zoos melting. Luckily it's effects on SPS and LPS is more desirable. Can't say for sure it'll work for any or everybody but it kind of worked for me. I was very skeptical and insisted that I'll not try it. But then one day backside itchy and I'm not looking back. Next time when I start a new tank, it's gonna be Zeovit right from the start! For those contemplaing, I would say GO FOT IT (but bear in mind the pros and cons so you're prepared.) Not to mention this is the first time in 2 yrs I get ZERO / UNDETECTABLE NO3!
