Dosing and water changes

[john2three]

OK, I've started to dose red sea reef foundation program and I've been fiddling around with dosage and found the right dose to keep calcuim magnesium and kh stable, my question is how often would you preform water changes now? Monthly? every other month? I've been reading some people never do one and can go years without a change?

Shouldn't it depend on the other parameters like Nitrate and Phosphate and Salinity also?
Loosing water through the skimmer. If (ALL) parameters are in check don't and see how it goes.

I've been using the Red Sea program for about 3 months and have yet to do a water change. Not sure yet, everything is thriving but slow growth. I had much faster growth with 25% water changes once a month. Only thing I'm using differently is BRS 2 part instead of the Red Sea 2 part and have BRS Kalk in the ato.

I'm not familiar with the Red Sea Program.
Someone will chime in soon.
What are your other water parameters if you don't mind me asking.

This is easier.
