Hello reefers,
Everyone knows the importance of water change, super important part of the hobby. I came across some experienced reefers around who swore to never change water in years.. adding elements or dosing the water and topping up is all they do while maybe using carbon to keep water clear
Im sure the majority here have been for years in the hobby, so do you still water changes same as you done it when you started the tank? and what do you think about the ones who dont do water changes but still running pretty awesome tank?
I heard mostly, some dont want to upset their coral and specially the SPS by doing water changes (afraid they wont like it and shut off), some consider the more it ages the more beneficial bacteria lives and help sustain better parameters so dont want to remove the living bacteria by doing water change.
What do you think about the water change? and size of tank or live stock can determine that decision?
