Are you meaning you used Reefer's Best, changed to H2Ocean in July, and notice the changes on the H2Ocean? Interesting...

I totally missed this post with the new page. Sorry Myka

Well to be honest, ha ha, I barely change the water on this tank, keep up with dosing. When I posted about the differences I was keeping up with my one week water changes and I have been meaning to do one but with the tank across its a headack.

Right now this is what happens every week for maintenance:

1 cap potassium
4 caps Calcium
3 caps magnesium
Change out the carbon ever 2 months
Kill any aiptasia

I think the last time I changed the water was back in July or August. The colors in the coral are amazing, growth is the fastest it has ever been. Oh and I added a new skimmer. Picked up the Bubble Magus NAC5. Seems to be working great.

But I do need to start fragging. My A.Convexa is a giant and I keep hitting tips off of it while cleaning the glass. Funny story, there are now little convexa's growing in certain spots were the tips landed.

Looking awesome Laurier. It looks to be a well balance tank and I'm all for low maintenance!

WOW NICE COLORS DUDE! When you say a cap full of this and that is it store bought in liquid form? Or bulk flake mixed with a certain amount of water. Do tell I need to know, I hate water changes and finally figured out how to set up a ATO directly from my whole house RO.

Incredible growth..... a few post's down you said the only thing you dose is potassium, calcium and mag? nothing for alk and no water changes?

Nice full look to the tank already with some sweet colonies.

How often do you change out the socks on the tank? It's not clear in the pic how they are plumbed in.
