DFR April 12, 2019 Share April 12, 2019 If you are running the full system then yes, you’ll need it. It is used to tumble the zeolites which removes old / dead bacteria from the surface to be taken up by your skimmer. I am not running the zeovit system, but was contemplating it at one point. So I bought a bunch of the supplements (cv color, sponge power, amino acids, trace elements, etc.) and didn’t repurchase after they finished. To me, the conversion wasn’t worth it based on the results I saw. I did however continue with the amino acids and trace elements, just on an altered schedule to what was recommended.

lowsingle April 14, 2019 Share April 14, 2019 I ran a hybrid method with good success. It really helped me get the tank back into shape, but I no longer need to use it as my tank has aged. Carbon dosing is a great way to build up you biological filter, just be careful not to let your nutrients get too low. I didn't use any of the advanced dosing stuff, just the basic four part setup.. If you are looking for a reactor I have a nice one I used I could sell you. I got my reactor from piper.... Darren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
