I doubt they will ever reveal their ingredients an most of their products. I think the mystery is part of the attraction to some. Plus some products just are not like any others by other brands. All you will get is reply’s about how it took years of experimenting to develop the bottles and they won’t want to give anything away.

Dr Jim, what are you basing dosages on from your icp tests?

Ycnibrc I never heard sponge power referred to as a bacteria product, I always thought it was something different like silicates mixed with something else.

To be clear, I was referring to the Triton Elements where I base dosages on ICP tests. With Triton ICP, If an element is low and they tell me to add "X" ml, then I will add that amount, then divide X by the number of days since my last ICP test. The number that results can be used as an estimate as to how much was "used" daily since my last test, and will be the amount I will add on a daily basis until the next test .....(or I might go a tad lower to play it safe and avoid an overdose). If the amount is less that 1 drop a day I will dose once or twice a week.

The Zeovit dosages are based on years of playing with them and they depend on the particular additive, size of tank and how much coral I have in them....and a little psychic intervention from the coral gods! :)

Hope this is clear!

Tagging along and will have to play catch-up over the weekend.

About 3 weeks into my conversion after battling high nutrients on an 18mo tank. Still struggling with po4, but I'm getting there. Would be quicker if I weaned my fish off processed foods, but if my finicky purple queen anthias likes it, who am I to argue? She's not called queen for nothing, everything revolves around her :)

Lol even Alexander from zeovit forum don't know what's the ingredients are. I have email zeovit and even the owner but no reply. If u look at Coral vitalizer and compare to the Aquaforest energy they look very similar

Energy smells almost identical to CV, Build is very similar to CS :)

Ive spoken to ( via email) to Thomas about the CV and the effects, but he didn't give any indication that he would tell me what was in it lol. Nice guy though helped me with the KZ calcium reactor media melting points and what i should still think about dosing to reach my goals based on my current regiment. TBH he said the exact same thing Anthony did when i asked him several weeks ago as well. nothing like solid advice from 2 guys that know what there doing..

For me personally,
I think hybrid AF Zeovit way to go.
AF Probiotic Method and their balling Comp123, and KZ supplements like AAHC, Extra/special, SP, CV, CS, and FWS. I would personally leave all chemistry with AF balling, very efficient for all trace and main minerals in 3 dosing system.
Sort of what I am doing, no stones here, a sandbed refugium for me. I believe Joe Chi does something similar, may have changed things up though :)

Either way,
I think KZ products are amazing, regardless of disclosure. The polish are quite hard to break as well, lol. Keep things close to their chest, lol.

Zeovit needs time to get better. After 6 months you will see sign of goodness

Sponge power promote sponge and related organisms so they can clean and break down nutrients so I put them in the bacteria group since they are doing the same job.

Isn't it weird that the smell of KZ products make me think of Easter, while the colors of Easter make me think of KZ zeovit system....hmmm

Have you tried fish eggs from a Japanese market? It’s great. I used to feed it routinely. Lumpfish “caviar” works well too but is likely a little large for anthias.
