First of all I have no idea who Glen Fong is, so I apologize if I am stepping on the toes of a well known and respected Godfather of the reefing community.Check out Glenn Fong!
I just did a quick search of his website and forum and his tank is impressive but it is not an easy thing for me to just accept all of what he is showing and suggesting when he actually sells the products to make it happen. I guess I would be more receptive if his forum section had a whole bunch of success stories but I am not seeing much of anything. It looks like only 5 new posts since 2017 and none of them that I could find in my 10 minutes of searching was another success story like his. Admittedly I did not spend long searching because I immediately dismissed his method when I read it required 15 parameters to be tested and dosed on a regular basis.
The two thing I hate in this Hobby are water changes and Testing and when I think of the costs of adding all the supplements and doing all that testing I would agree with reefs.com statement that:
"I find it difficult to agree that monitoring and maintaining so many variables with 15 chemical supplements is either easy or affordable. I think most would agree with me that regular water changes are much simpler."
So hats of to Glenn if he really achieved this but IMHO it's just not practical, it's actually insanely difficult.
