Singapore Reef Club - Low nutrient/Zeovit Discussion

[fkadir]

Hi Guys, I am not crystal clear on how the various parts of zeovit works in attaining a low nutrient environment while having very healthy SPS corals etc etc. Can you guys help to fill in the details that I have not covered pls?

Hi fkadir,

In these old RC threads there is some discussion as to the "nuts and bolts" of how the system may work.

Farish, I can get to the link now. Wow! I love your input on that thread. Good job! This is exactly how I feel quoted from Andysho:

-----------------
so call zeovit~~ have lose some sps~~~ To use this zeovit, one needs patience and the exact amount of dosage into the reef tank~~ any overdose can cause loss of tissue.
Some oversea reefers hates this product to extreme while some love
it to the extreme

The main key to this zeovit is to let sps get used to it slowly~ if one bring
down the nutrient too fast~~ sps will suffer loss of tissue
-----------------

I also wanted to state that i used ROWA adn it wasnt for me. Killed a lot of corals and frags.

LOL, well Farish, join the crowd Suffice it to say a theory has it that when marked changes occur in water chemistry & nutrient availability, time must transpire in order for corals to adapt to a alternate energy source, ie. less photosynthetic by-products can be used by the coral as the zoox. density is diminished, while concomittantly, this allows the coral to outcompete the zoox. for available elements used in coral color & growth Bob

[fkadir]

Bob, can i quote you on that in SRC?

Edward, will give the admins a heads-up on your attempt to register.

[Skipper]

The owner of that board is Achilles (on RC). You could always PM him there, Invinc.

Remember his Tank of the Month?

[Aged Salt]

Farish, sure. Just remember I don't have references as this is a theory but fits the practical situation that we see in our reefs with ZEOvit. Bob

[invincible569]

Skipper, thanks!! Yes I do. I knew that was Conrads tank and saw him as an admin. I didnt realize though that his name was achilles on RC though. I already got a confirmation email that I was approved. Thanks guys!

[fkadir]

Edward, pls dunt tempt us in SRC with the lovely shots of your corals too much.. We might become really envious and start saying that your corals are fake!
