I don't do massive water changes, my tank has been running for 2 years. I run skimmer, bio pellet, and algae scrubber. Feed pellets daily, brine and mysis Which I don't prerinse.
I now do 2-5g a week for fun but sometimes not even a gal....I don't do waterchanges for trace, as I use IO salt and we all know IO is a basic salt that lacks a few things but it's consistent which is why I am a fan.
I use brightwells full line and dose spastically whenever couple drops here and there...
Calcium is dripped through a container with an irrigation line, and my ato has mg sulphate/ chloride and Kalk water.
Everything is growing and doing well I would say growth isn't as fast as I would like but I have to consistently prune to fit the 100ish peices of coral in a tiny 75g....
If you do dose trace do it in small amounts once a week however I wouldn't be too woried as long as the major 3 are taken care of.
Hope this helps!
