Zeolite Media for the ZEOvit System
- Natural Blend of High-Quality Zeolites
- Works with ZEObak & ZEOstart to Help Reduce Nitrate & Phosphate
- Designed for Use in a ZEOvit Reactor
Korallen-Zucht ZEOvit is the primary filtration media used in the ZEOvit system. Made from a balanced mixture of natural zeolites, the media is placed inside a dedicated ZEOvit reactor where water continuously passes through it.
When used together with ZEObak and ZEOstart, ZEOvit Media helps reduce nitrate and phosphate while supporting the low-nutrient conditions the ZEOvit method is designed to maintain. ZEOfood Plus is used alongside these core components to further support the biological processes within the system.
How the ZEOvit System Works
The ZEOvit system uses beneficial bacteria to help keep nitrate and phosphate at very low levels. Think of it as creating a controlled environment where those bacteria can grow, process nutrients, and help keep the aquarium water clean.
ZEOvit Media provides the surface and filtration environment for the system. ZEObak adds the beneficial bacteria, while ZEOstart helps those bacteria grow and reproduce. ZEOfood Plus provides additional nutrition to support the system and the corals.
As the bacteria grow, they consume nutrients in the aquarium. Agitating the ZEOvit Media helps release accumulated material and bacterial biomass into the water, where it can be removed by the protein skimmer or consumed by corals and other filter-feeding organisms.
The goal is to maintain a stable, low-nutrient environment that supports strong coral coloration and growth without stripping the aquarium of nutrients too quickly.
How ZEOvit Media Fits Into the ZEOvit System
ZEOvit Media is one of the foundational components of the Korallen-Zucht ZEOvit method. Rather than functioning as a standalone filter media, it is designed to work as part of the system alongside ZEObak, ZEOstart, and ZEOfood Plus.
- ZEOvit Media: Provides the physical filtration component of the system
- ZEObak: Supplies beneficial bacterial cultures that form the proper chain for nutrient reduction
- ZEOstart: Promotes the reproduction of all nitrifying bacteria in the aquarium
- ZEOfood Plus: A nutritional supplement for the corals that leads to brilliant coloration
The media is housed in a ZEOvit reactor and should remain submerged. For proper maintenance, agitate the media daily to help keep it free of accumulated debris.
Recommended Use
Media Amount: 1000 mL ZEOvit per 400 L (approx. 106 gallons) of aquarium water
Maximum Flow Rate: 400 L/h (approx. 106 GPH) through the reactor per 1000 mL of ZEOvit Media
Maintenance: Agitate the media daily to keep it clean and free of accumulated debris.
Replacement: Replace the ZEOvit Media every 6–8 weeks.

The Zeovit system actually does not recommend running a UV sterilizer at any time. With the Zeovit system, you are using a bunch of bacteria to create an ultra-low nutrient system. Any UV sterilizer will easily destroy the bacteria that you are trying to culture in your tank and essentially combatting two different systems together that will most likely have negative effects.
The weight will be around 2 lbs but can vary from bag to bag. Typically with Zeovit you will use 1 liter media per 100 gallons. Feel free to let us know if you have any further questions!
This media will not work in a standard reactor as this is not a media which can tumble. It needs to be shaken with the use of a zeovit reactor with rod to shake the media one time daily. Feel free to let us know if you have any further questions!
