Hello all, just wondering if all of you are doing scheduled water changes regardless whether the water chemistry is off or not.
I'm running a 55 gal tank with protein skimmer, cannister filter, some SPS and fish and have not done a water change in about 3-4 weeks now. I have been checking my salinity(via refractometer), pH, ammonia, nitrites, nitrates and they are all within the required parameters.
I've been dripping Kalwasser and checking alk, Ca, and Mg with pretty good results. My main question is...why do scheduled water changes if the parameters are within normal limits?
