Nyos Zeo

[Hilltopreef90]

I bought a canister of Nyos Zeo thinking it was similar to GFO, I was planning to run it in my reactor to help reduce nitrates.
Is this a worthwhile product to use ? What benefits will it provide besides reducing my nitrates ?

Yes, I've been running Nyos Zeo on my system for a year and a half now. It does reduce nitrates, but I also recommend some bio-media (MarinePure, Brightwell) to help with ammonia-nitritre and nitrite-nitrate management. Nyos Zero (daily) is also recommended.

I’ve been running purit and will try the Nyos zero
How do you use your Zeo? I’m planning to run it in my reactor

Are we talking about Nyos Zero, or Nyos Zeo?

The zero sounds like organic carbon dosing, not like GFO, but the web description doesn't say much about it.

The zeo is a zeolite, which i doubt will do much for phosphate. Some zeolites do bind some nitrate, but there are better ways to control nitrate, IMO.
