I have a 90g display with a 30g sump that has been running since April. I have probably 150lbs on LR in it, which is 1/3 covered in coraline. I also have plent of coral in there. Nothing huge, but everything from lps to sps. I don`t dose anything unless my levels drop.
I do a 15 gallon water change every other week. My question is, is it normal that my levels rarely ever change? Everytime I test my calcium it almost always around 440 and my dkh is always around 8.5-9.5. My PH is always 8.0 or 8.1.
When I started buying equipment I was looking at calcium reactors, but at this rate I wont need one for years. It just seems odd to me that I rarely ever have to dose anything.
