Tell us more about your system, and maybe we can suggest ways to help reduce the maintenance you have to do! Unfortunately though, as mentioned, waterchanges are still important and necessary, even if extremely infrequent.

Please tell us:

-System size (including tanks/any filtration systems)
-Filtration equipment (eg; refugium, skimmer, hang on filters, powerheads, etc...)
-Lighting
-Livestock (corals and fish - how much live rock?)
-Regular maintenance performed?
-How long has it been up and running?
-Feeding?(what/how often?)

These will be a great start to help get some feedback on your system!

And yes, still need waterchanges with biopellets! Stuff may break down, but over time you just increase the concentration of excess nutrients in the water... waterchanges are pretty much 'the' Way to get that stuff out.

Cheers,

Chris
