I'm assuming this excludes all the water changes you did when your tank crashed last year. My post was more focused on reducing water changes while keeping up nutrients and not having to add equipment/media. I used to run GFO like you but preferred to eliminate this as well. How are your SPS...
That's correct marrone! A better understanding of the nutrient balance and alot of adjusting has helped me reach that point. It's not simply about eliminating water changes for me but also keeping a fair amount of nutrients in the system for my corals
It?s been about 4-5 months since I?ve done a water change in my tank and everything from zoas to SPS are doing great. WCs are by far my least favorite part of the hobby so this has been huge for me. Whenever I tell people that I stopped doing water changes, they are always a bit skeptical so I...

I've had these two acros for a few months but have never known their names. Got them as unknown acros in trades and both have grown nicely in my tank. It's hard to get a good photo under my lights. The first SPS is much bluer than it looks in the photo. 2nd photo is the top down view of that...
