I've been considering altering my approach to fall in-line with one of the reef programs available. For example there's the Red Sea program, Zeovit, and Triton.

What do people think about this? My approach has always been custom ... mixing brands, plotting my own course. But I can see the appeal to sticking to a single brand for additives and strategy. Who has experience with RedSea? Do you stick entirely to the program or deviate? Similar question to Zeovit?
 
IMHO, the problem with any "system" is that each and every tank out there is it's own completely independent ecosystem. You can have two identical tanks side by side and what works in one won't necessarily work in the other.

As long as the system is stable, most creatures will adapt given enough time.
