From the colours in the pictures, do you really want to be changing your routines?

Well I can't remember the last time I changed some water. That can't be good.

I dont understand lando, what your saying is that you have been lacking the maintence in the tank and your tank looks awesome, me on the other hand, i do water changes and other testing and i cant get the tank looking right HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM weird

The tank was getting taken over by halimedia and some caulerpa. When all the work was done, there was almost a whole 5 gallon pail of algae.

Your tank looks fine to me, don't sweat the small stuff. Everyones tank has to find an equilibrium, and every tank has a different equilibrium. IMO you worry to much about the small things, and never stick with anything long enough to find out if its working or not. (Sorry that sounded kinda harsh, but it wasn't ment to be.)

Changed all my bulbs this week, I switched the actinics from actinic+ to pure actinic. No change on the MH though just new bulbs. One thing I have to say is..when just the actinics are on the colors sure are amazing. They are a little dimmer but the fluorescence is crazy compared to the actinic+. I cant figure out my camera when trying to take a pic with actinics. Here is couple shots before the MH turned off.

Love the Stylo and Poci. These are definitely my favourite corals ... gotta love those pinks/fuscias.
