+1 for testing.

Sounds like you have an awesome set-up but you really need to regularly test for Ammonia, Nitrite, Nitrates, phosphates, pH, and salinity (sg)

It is very important to keep the salinity stable...I would pick up a new refractometer if you are not getting consistent readings. Have you calibrated it lately?

+1 for only adding one fish every two weeks

You want to feed a variety of foods but do not over-feed your tank either.

I have had my system up for about 18 months. I don't yet have any dosers or controllers, but by far teh best hardware purchase I have made is an ATO system. Absolutely love it and keeps salinity perfeectly stable.

And props to Beaumont - I grew up there.
