Feedback on Korallen Zucht Zeovit reactor

[aravindk]

Has anyone used this below reactor? Why is it three times more than another brand? Does the extra cost really worth it?

Good question. I don't think it's worth the extra cost. I also run Zeovit, but use a vertex reactor and love it.

thanks. The claim that 'it could nearly done by itself without any effort' sounded like as if this reactor does not need to be shaken or stirred once everyday like the other zeo reactors in the market. Apparently not.

Nope. The shaking is the most important part of any zeovit reactor.

Iirc the build quality and the magnet are what makes it attractive to some
I personally just made my own

Old thread but thought I would chime in..I've never used the Vertex but just got the KZ in the mail. One thing I can say is that the internal basket on the KZ levitates off the bottom with the magnets. It bounces up and down with almost no effort. Like I said I haven't used any other but without that function I can see where it would take a lot more effort to shake the stones.
