I was once appalled when I saw straight salt dumped into the shark tank at the LFS.
Of course, then I started doing it myself at home. Well, not buckets full, just a cup here and there into the sump to keep it regulated.
My live rock has long since bleached, and rather than scrub clean from brown algae, when I do a water change, I simply turn the rocks to hide the slimy part, underneath is nice, white and clean.
Now, I am NOT promoting lazy habits, I have three kids and haven't had much time to enhance my tank lately, I'm just here keeping the ones I got alive.
