Yes you are complicating things. Your constantly given advice which isn't taken, then you ask the same questions over and over again. Are you hoping for a different answer than your seeing? We're not there to take care of your new tank for you, you have to do that. We do want to help YOU take care of YOUR tank.Im not complicating things. All im asking if i can run carbon. Im worried if i have something in my water bothering my corals. Thata what im worried for. U know we add corals with our hands in and im just worried. Just a thought. And since im not doing water changes. I figured why cant i run carbon thats all.
Run it as much as you want, some do it 24/7 to combat coral warfare among other reasons, some run it for a few days @ a time. It's about what works in your situation.Im not complicating things.

This is what I see below your current thread, it's you asking the same thing. We're here to help, but you choose not to take the advice given,
My last test was alk 7.0 ans phosphate 0.03 and nitrate 5. But my question was mainly if i should dk a water change or not. Because im worried if there something in my water bothering my corals beside being its a new tank thats all. Like after i afded the frogspawn this happened. Maybe elft over coral rx? Maybe the new sock i didnt rinse kr even my hands thats why i wasnt sure whats the best solution here.I agree with most said on this thread.
I think the problem is OP, that your worried. Worried the alk with drop, worried my coral will die, worried the fish will die, worried my phosphate dropped, worried dinos will set in, worried....
Remember, this is a hobby. Hobbies are supposed to be relaxing and ease the stress.
Bad things happen, we try to prevent. Good things happen too, we try to encourage them. But nothing really happens fast, unless we tinker, adjust, mess with, dose, move this, move that, ect...
Breath deep, sit back in your easy chair, get a drink, relax. How does the tank look?
How was your last testing?
Alk is low but using a low alk salt. Is it stable? Yes, do nothing. Our, going down, mix up some baking soda, dose according to the calculater.
Relax....
