Hi everyone, I have a new tank that is finished cycling without any coral yet. As a short term plan, is it probably fine to rely on water changes only for Alk/Ca/Mg needs? When would you consider enough coral density/maturity to necessitate test kits? I'd like to get a Hana Alk colorimeter.
I'll eventually buy a doser and dose TM all-for-reef, can I dose this without testing for Ca/Mg and base my measurements off of Alk? I know I need to eventually buy all three tests but can I get by with just Alk to make the initial investment a bit less expensive? Thanks for all the advice!
