In the past few days I had spent numerous hours testing different test kits trying to find that one close to perfect all around test kit. My wife scolded me for spending hours and days on it. I then realized that I have been spending more hours on equipments, water chemistry, test kits, and etc. than actually sitting down and enjoying the view of my tank.
The more I read and watch articles, the more I feel like I still need to buy this and that and do this and that. It makes me think when do I get to enjoy my tank?!? LMAO
I prefer to not add husbandry onto my list other than WC and once a week water testing, but is dosing really necessary? I know that they have the automatic ones but it still requires me to mix and set it up and I don't have the luxury of extra space and time.
I just want to keep a handful of fishes, anemone, softies coral, and maybe only one or two LPS or SPS.
I was told that doing regular WC should be enough for most cases.
My questions are:
-is there a specific salt brand that contains enough chemistry that allow me to do water change only without dosing?
-how much water change is enough to replenish the chemistry if I do per week?
