Like I said, it's not the first low nutrient low fish load tank I've had Steve. You can make yourself a low maintenance tank...depends what you want more. The "lazy SOB" approach WILL work, you just have to plan around it - it's all about balance.

A freshly set up tank may actually have quite high nutrients...depends what approach you take.
