Lance's 225 gal tank

[Lance]

Sometimes I think I'm better off just leaving the tanks alone and leaving them to find their own way.
I test the big 3 every week and the other parameters monthly. Dosing is done via Drew's dosers and controller. For the last 9 months or so I'd been having a little trouble keeping calcium and alk balanced. One week Ca would be low and the next week Alk would be low: nothing serious, just not the numbers I'd like to see.
I've been pretty busy the last while and hadn't tested for 6 weeks. Also hadn't done a water change for 5 weeks. Just tested now and the numbers are as good as I've ever seen them.

(90 gal)
Ca:420
Alk:9
Mg:1320
And the others: Nitrate: 0 Phosphate: 0

(225 gal)
Ca:425
Alk:8
Mg:1310
Nitrate: 0 Phosphate: .001

(frag tank)
Ca:415
Alk:9
Mg.1305
Nitrate: 0 Phosphate: 0



Huh! Guess I should just leave them alone to do their own thing. Instead of "Keeper of the Reef" I'm now just the "Keeper of the Fish Food"
Silly bloody hobby!
