    That's good to hear--and you're the first that I know of to try the DE trick with zeosand. Now we know that it probably works with zeo, too....did you by any chance open your filter up and see if it gunked the zeo up?

    No. I really didn't want to open up my filter unless absolutely necessary - especially after it seemed (finally!) to be doing something. I did have *some* DE blow through the filter and into the pool after I added it, but it wasn't much at all. Most of it is presumably somewhere in the tank.

    OK--but until we know what the DE did to the zeo, we won't be recommending it for zeo folks to try. If, during this season, you have to open the filter for any other reason, just keep this thread in mind--and let us know what you found.
