My work and kids have kept me crazy-busy for the last 9 months. I’ll bet I’ve done one 5 gallon water change, for my 120 gal, in that time. I haven’t even checked my chemistry in a coon’s age. My fish are all cool, my generic polyps have even recently spawned, my superman ‘shrooms are doing strangely well, yellow sponges are routinely showing up (and growing!), and my skimmer is finally working well.
BUT, I know that I cannot continue in this “sinful life” if I really desire to fully exploit and enjoy this hobby. So, my question is this… How would y’all recommend changing the water out and get things right? Should I just go buy a 50 lb bucket of Tropic Marin/Reef Crystals and do 5-10 gal water changes daily? Every other day? Mix 80 gal and do one MASSIVE change?
I’m ready to repent and get back on the straight and narrow, “Father”, I just need absolution and advice on how to get back on track.
Thank you, I sincerely appreciate the advice and input.
