Kent was peddling unnecessary products long before Zeo came about. They used to have a whole line of trace elements you buy in large quantities, there is no telling how many people polluted their tanks over the years thinking they were doing something good. Brightwell is his son in law and carried the tradition forward. Take a look at all of the various additives Brightwell is peddling and then tell me it is needed, not just the Neo ones, but the entire line. I would allmost guarantee you that they did not actually make a copy of the Zeo products but did copy the name. I have real doubts that they reverse engineered the Zeo products but did find a way to cash in on the name game.
I take it back, there is one useful Kent product, their scrapers are pretty good. :dance:
The only think Zeo did was convince people to remove nutrients to the point that they would have to add some back
I see alot of folks like IO, instead of RC.Is there a big reason?
I just want to order ESV and be done with it , Fridays Pay day !!
You'll be happy you did. The first time mixing is a learning curve bit super easy after.
I'm done in less than 15 minutes or so with a whole water change. The salt mixes super clean and is ready to go after mixing for a few minutes.
What are the numbers on the esv? I would like to try it since it's so fast to mix all I need on hand is fresh water that I already have =).
Me D Smack what mag test kit are you using ?
Thanks those seem ideal for what I want. I'm gonna give it a try just for not having to have mixed water on hand. I can have my fresh topped off at all times and be good..Going off what I remember

I checked it every time I mixed it up for the first few months but haven't checked since. I've been using it for almost 3 years now.
if you dont know the science behind something, you shouldnt assume its wrong ...
think about this "if you remove most nutrients, and add what YOU want, maybe it would give you 'full' control of the environment you are trying to make, maybe you would be able to control the environment more to make animals you try to keep happy ?"
does that make any sense ?
