Hi, just a quick question in the fallow period do you guys stick to water changes every week even when they are no fish in the tank? Or just test for nitrate and do water changes when needed? Thanks

Anyone?
 
What else is in the tank? If the tank is stocked with corals, you could make the argument for continuing to do water changes for trace element replenishment and not just nutrient control.

Just snails and couple of corals i dose all for reef everyday
 
With a light coral stocking level, and if nutrients are in check, I personally wouldn't have any issues cutting back on water changes while fallow.
