hi,

Well am planning for a full blown Aquaforest line for my new reef tank with Zeomix, carbon, phos minus, NP Pro and Pro Bio S, Component 1,23 and elements A,B,V and E .

As I understand, between the skimmer and zeomix, carbon, phos minus , NP Pro and Pro Bio S , the filtration part of reducing nitrates and phosphates are taken care of.
Component 1,2,3 are supposed to provide trace and all major/minor elements.

If so, do we really need water change or like triton, aquaforest tanks can go without water change . Once ICP testing is available, may be testing the water once in 3-4 months should be good enough .

Why do we even need water change if above is true? Personally I would like to keep things as stable as possible without regular water changes and replenish only lost elements.

Regards,
Abhishek
