Did you save the instructions for recharging the zeolite? At a certain point, it will become “clogged” up with ammonia and then it has to be recharged and reused. If you have two packets of it, you can alternate them with a fresh packet while you recharge the used one.
please send me the instructions there were no instructions on re-charging the zeolite 
box just said change every month i bought a box of 3 cartridges so i have a spare to use …. the zeolite is starting to change color a bit it is becoming a pinkish color. when should i re-charge the zeolite? at what color intensity? i noticed my tank is somewhat clearer today than is was so i guess the particles are settling or being picked up by the filter or both. 
What kind of metal container is it? A pot? Stainless steel would certainly be OK. There are some issues with teflon where small pieces of it come off when cooking so if you have a teflon pot that has a degraded coating, I probably wouldn’t use it for the fish. It’s probably still OK for cooking… although some might argue against it.
it is a stainless steel stock pot, any teflon in this house is limited to new pans on low heat because of the parrots and the possibility of toxic fumes and toxic particles getting into my food (yes i have birds and cats too ….. and i am much more knowledgeable about both) thanks for all your help Lenny with setting my tank up PROPERLY so i can have fish that live long healthy lives
