My reef tank is about a year old now and fairly established. I don’t experience significant algae growth, high nitrate levels, or any other concerning outliers when doing basic water tests.
If I wait too long in between water changes some of my lps coral won’t fully open. I don’t want to have to do consistent water changes if not necessary, but are levels such as calcium, alkalinity, and PH levels being depleted during long periods in between water changes?
In simpler terms, do water changes assist with boosting important levels such as PH, calcium alkalinity? And do these levels deplete over time if no other boosters are added?
In Today’s video, we take a look at the video which involed the Trident and alkatronic made by Mr. Saltwatertank for Saltwateraquarium.com and while your on Youtube make sure you subscribe to my youtube channel here.
