Zeospur2 and Spongespower - Woe!

[-Logzor]

got a pic of what you're describing?

Sorry I don't, I'll try and get one this evening.

I'd love to see photos of the effect described. Thanks.

The active ingredient in ZS2 is copper. In mild and diluted form, this will cause the zoozanthellae to be expelled from corals. I can also attest that it works very well and should NOT be overdosed. New dosages should try 1/2 to 3/4. It's even recommended on the bottle label to go easy w/ this stuff.

Those with ZS2 and a Cu test kit can verify the copper content in this stuff. When diluted ZS2 is tested using a copper test kit, the readings are still off the charts.

When poured into the KZ white cap, you can see the blue tint in the ZS2.

HTH

LOL I didn't see the "Take is easy" part on the bottle! Maybe it was only in German?

Small update, my corals are recovering quickly from the 'normal dose' (which is basically an overdose).

My Cali Tort looks spectacular.

An overdose is dosing more than 1ml per 25G of your net water volume.

Yeah I was kind of joking because the recommended dose was VERY potent.

Do you use any zeovit products currently?

Ah

I primarily use PX, PIF, K Bal, CV, CS. I rarely use ZS2, and I have all those (expensive) blue bottles

 

[orthokardia]

how does your friend use it as a dip? how much for how long?

Just thought I would post an update as to how my SPS were doing. Everything is doing very well, the color has come back more vibrant than before on all of the effected corals. My green stag is finally looking green again.

I would definitely recommend zeospur2 to anyone who has a couple of stubborn brown corals (not a tank full of brown corals). Again, keep dosage minimal, start at 1/4 dose.
