I am new to this site and like what I see so far. Quite interesting.
I was reading a magazine i picked up at my live fish store. It is Reef Hobbyist magazine. Well anyway it had an interesting article on a reef tank this guy built a 145 gallon coral reef in the sky tank. He mentioned his routine. Daily he would replenish supplements, clean glass, feed fish, monitor sump water level. Weekly he does a water change. Monthly he changes carbon and changes zeolites (which I have no idea what that is). And finally he does Ad Hoc stuff such as clean various pumps, clean skimmer and change T5 tubes (which I would like to know what the best frequency to change the lights).
Well my question is I would love to hear from some members on their routines. What do other members do? I have a 36 gallon Bow-tank with T5 lighting. One of my weakness has been maintenance. I would love to hear some advice.
