Default Ecosystems

I recently installed a ecosystem on my 90 gal. I am using miracle mud and calerpra. Its up and running now for 3 weeks and am seeing good results. I would like to hear some feedback from other reefers using the ecosystem.

kkep us posted on your progress. I just bought an Ecosystem 40 hang on for a 30 Gallon high minireef that am working to set up. Unfortunately, it will take months to get up and running given some major home repais that need to happen first. That said, I'm anxious to know how you do with it !

I have found a Ecosystem 60, if I get it do I need to have a power filter to or will this eliminate the need for one?

I have added some Grape Caulerpa (Caulerpa racemes) to the ecosystem, any recommendations on some other good things to put in it.
