Is the information on this first two post still valid?


Specifically, the water parameters in the 2nd post.

Maybe I'm insane but being a noob at saltwater tanks, But I go to Scripps/Birch every week and get a 30 gal barrel. Got a 18v cordless ryobe water transfer pump and a hose specifically for this. drain and fill 30 gal of the 130 gal tank.
Life is thriving for 6 months now. Corals have doubled and trippled in size. Fish and crustachions all loving life. I tested it every day at first, then weekly...with that 30 gal swap I feel I'm wasting my time testing it as it comes up almost perfectly every time. I havn't cleaned my filter ever. I don't want to mess with the balance of it all. Glass stays clean and the snails mop up the debris. What am I doing wrong that feels SO RIGHT. lol.

Mother natures real good at mixing the water up right. Add a little magnesium for the coral we don't have here and give time for the temp on the barrel to match the tank..then swap em.
