A new system with measurable nitrate levels? That's me.
The old ways were to starve SPS for nutrients, as it was thought to be bad for the corals, which it was. But having too little nutrients is bad too....
So running ecoBAK replaces the need for granular carbon pellets, but eliminates the need for running GFO, as well?
This is a good thread. I am going along for the ride. I listened to what you suggested earlier, Steve. I like the sound of ecoBAK.
When you say carbon dosing, do you mean opposed to just in a reactor? I will look into Bio-Pellets.
OK, this seems to be getting a bit confusing so I will tell you what my plans are...I have my 29g DT with 37 lb of rock. A 2" sandbed of aragonite. I...

Aside from maybe being complicated to start, why don't more people use it? Is there a bad side to it?
So if I used Zeo additives, I use Zeo and nothing else(i.e. Pphosban). What about carbon or GFO?
I'm in!
This is beginning to sound complicated. haha The Start-up: 1) use 300ml of carbon passively for the first exchange[4wks] & knead this daily. 2)...
More info can be found below. I shall return after a while...lol Home - Zeovit
