Sometimes it seems as though your phone is actually in the water when you get closer in.
Are you zooming in and out while shooting that?
I like the fact that is doesn't over saturate the colours (too much) like the iPhone does..
What lighting do you use?
I actually leave my zoom alone and just put the camera phone right on the glass when I seem to get closer. I think using the built-in anti-shake on youtube makes it feel more immersive like I'm actually flying around in the tank. Just a theory. I am using two Ocean Revive T247 LED fixtures and one 400-watt MH fixture. If you tell me which is the MH, I'll give you a reefer of the day badge. :-)

I had the same colony of clones through both my old 125-gallon tank and my current 215-gallon tank with no issues with the no water changes. The only issue I've run across is when I introduced the Colorado Sunburst anemone, it got a really bad bacterial infection and I had to treat it with Cipro. It's be fine ever since but I don't think that's a correlation with the no water changes.

I do an annual Triton water test to monitor trend changes but don't really use it to base any of my dosing off it. I still don't 100% trust their results are as accurate as they imply but I am okay with using it for monitoring of annual trends. Basically, I wouldn't use a low potassium result from Triton as an indicator to dose more potassium, I would just monitor it to see how much it changes year to year and base my dosing on my own test kits.
