    For those who have been in the hobby for 1yr or more, how often do u do your testing? I don't test for nitrites or ammonia anymore but do I still need to test weekly for alk, ca, ph, phos, nitrates???

    Since doing regular water changes...I do not test as much as I used to. Maybe once every month or so, or if I see something that does not "feel" just right.

    I do chech Ca after each water change and dose accordingly.
