Hi Jim, & a zeorrific welcome to our forum & the ZEOvit method As Nick has mentioned the parameters need some tweaking for success with ZEOvit. The Ca level >400[430, if using 8-drop Salifert test]/ Mg 1200[obtain a Mg test--I use Salifert's]/KH between 6.5-8. I've had good results in the 7's. Plz. estimate your exact net water vol, as I did not see much LR is in your main display or what level of water is housed in your sumps. This need to be accurate to extract the proper zeo-dosing. Thnx. Bob

Hi Daniel, looked over your specs and it seems your tank is in pretty good shape already. To me, people with crappy tanks are going to see the most improvement, as more is possible. I can say that, because the zeovit system transformed my own relatively crappy tank.
However, the low nutrient levels that can be achieved with the zeo system, simply cannot be obtained in an aquarium by any other means. Therefore, you will see an improvement in coral health and color. Yes, I'd recommend it to you.
