    ZEOVIT

    Phosphates down 1+ to 1- Nitrates seem to be responding slowly to less feeding 15-

    ZEOVIT

    Reef<> Had a talk with Brendan before starting Phosphate remover and we came to the same conclusion as you. Tested last night 1+ down from 2 its moving, keeping a very careful eye on things. While talking to Brendan he also suggested running my skimmer wetter, never really new what this was, so now giving it ago, also clean out cup daily. Will test phos and nitrates this evening.

    Fish have adjusted to less feeding, but I feel mean :oops: Looks like I lost my golden headed sleeper goby I'm not sure what was wrong with him but I did my best for him, sad can still see his little face looking at me.

    ZEOVIT

    About a year and a half for large tank, only 4 months for the small tank which is connected via sump. Some of the large tank rock is over 2 and a half years due to up grade. I am not going to give up on zeovit, just going to give it a helping hand. Wasp: I did all your suggestions but got brown algea. Have dropped back to 1ml zeostart twice daily and put the reactor back to 24/7. I agree feeding has a big part if you dump food for sick fish, I have just had the same experience had to stop and haven't seen my poor Golden Headed Sleeper Goby for about a week My nitrates shot up to 30, did big water changes NSW and got it back to 15. Not so worried about Nitrates but I think phosphates running at 2 is tooo much.

    ZEOVIT

    Been running Zeovit for 5 months now<> result so far Nitrate 15 <>Phosphate 2 <> I've started to look at other ways. Have ordered Phosphate remover for a start, and cut my feeding down.

    ZEOVIT

    I thought you are advised to do 5% waterchange weekly with zeovit?
  10. Thanks It is looking even better now I've got the flow right with the streams, had to do a bit of adjusting and it has taken time to get it right.

    Feeding Fish

    Cracker<>is once a day
  12. Phosphates<>2 Nitrates<>15 Calcium<>425 Magnesium<>1200 need to adjust Kh<>7 PH<>8.3 Salt<>1.025 Temp<>25 Skimmer removes about 500mls per week Over the last week I have cut feeding down to once a day frozen every third day. Can't seem to move phosphates below 2 even with running Zeovit for about 4 months now.
  13. Some fish aren't suited to tank life, low chance of survival.

It's nice to share but I didn't expect to get such a lovely coral in return, put it in the tank and it opened up straight away must like the spot I made for it. Wasp could you please give me it's correct name? Thanks again Fay Cracker has made a lovely job of his tank 10 out of 10 Cracker Have to visit Wasp next time over the shore, to see his tank something to look forward to
