Every tank needs a differant weapon but the succes is when we all find that weapon and stick to a dedicated schedule, and not slacking off, All my problems were in the first 2 years of discovery and trying new things, now I have a strick schedule of biweekly 40 gallon water changes, one teaspoon of baking soda every night, feed fish daily and kick the skimmer to restart it after power outages. all corals are growing and gettign traded fish are fine and clowns breeding, 2 fatalities in past 2.5 years when they went A-Wall.

Quick answers to some unanswered questions above:
Plant life refers to an old member that had some... different and dangerous views on tank husbandry. He has moved on to other forums with his ideas...
Limewater/Kalkwasser - Cheap way to add/maintain Calcium and Alk. Check the FAQs it has been hashed to death.
Two part solutions/B-Ionic: Works well to maintain/add Calcium and Alk. Many people roll there own because it is expensive otherwise.
Not putting hands in tank: This means to not constantly rearrange, tinker with tank, changing the environment and IMO chemistry. Sometimes people will add a fish/coral and instead of letting in acclimate they are moving it around force feeding it and in the end adding more stress than help. Moving the rock around all the time can also stress fish and corals. Not to mention your hands leave oils in the water.
