milesmiles902 Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 (edited) To allow us to compare, I am going to make a graph of what users answer to this question. What do you test in your saltwater aquarium weekly? I tried to find an embedded graph where users could click their answer, but I couldn't find it without leaving the forum. My say: Alkalinity, pH. I haven't had a need to test calcium or magnesium weekly, quite yet. The once a week water changes help with most issues. I don't really have to worry about phosphates or nitrates with the bio-load and only test them periodically.

Jeramy Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 At this point the only thing I do weekly is water changes. So I am checking Salinity 1 per week. Once a month I test for Nitrate and Phosphate with RedSea kits. My tank is nothing fancy and I don' dose anything so I am employing the K.I.S.S. method of reefing =) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mandinga Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 I usually test for kH and Ca once aweek. Though in recent weeks i'm adding salinity to my weekly test regiment. I dont do water changes, but i do test my Phosphates about every couple months...though my refugium growth usually tells me what i need to know.
