How often does every one clean their filtration system on their sumpless systems? What other maintenance things do you do? How often do you do water testing and which is the most important to you?
I'll start:
Water changes are done weekly
Canister filter cleaning weekly
Change carbon weekly
Clean Hob skimmer bi-weekly
Water testing done weekly or if I'm seeing problems they are the first thing that is done no matter what else is going on. This gives me a base to start corrective action.
I feed this tank heavily and have never had a problem with nitrates or phosphates. It will grow LPS and Softies without issue. I haven't really tried SPS in it because of the lighting I have on it but the water, in my opinion, would be ok for SPS.
