Looking good zeosister

I am on day 15. Still have a ways to go. After week 2 your supposed to keep dosing zeostart2 right? and drop the others to 3x week? how soon was it when you started to use other products like the snow?

blue_eyes53813 · 08-12-2008, 03:33 PM

Hi Frankie , Sorry I missed this.. Zeosister, lol I like that.

Yep use zeostart everyday...Zeostart will be a nonstop thing now..

I believe I started to use snow at about 4 months or after the "little" algae outbreaks went away. You dont want it to feed the algae and I still use it VERY sparingly... I dont think Ive ever done a full dose.

The zeoback and the zeofood, Yes can be reduced to 3X a week and Down the road like around 3-4 months it can be dropped back to 2X a week. Remember after each changing of the zeo media to dose everyday for 10-14 days again.. and than go back to 3 Xs a week...

Frankie · 08-12-2008, 10:29 PM

Awesome! Thanks Vicki
