May I ask what type of corals you plan on keeping? I mean since you don't have any SPS, you can probably get away with those levels. My tank is...
If you ever start getting SPS, you will need to start testing calcium alkalinity and magnesium. Once you see these levels start to drop, its time to...
Really?? Someone just offered us one the other day! Seriously! I said no because I thought it was ugly.
