Low maintenance is a slippery slope. How low do you want to go?
1. Bigger tank - slower changes in salinity, ph, nitrates etc.
2. Live Sand - Harbors beneficial bacteria to help clean your tank
3. Live Rock - Another harbor for benficial bacteria to help with filtration
4. Sumps and Refugiums - increase total water volume (see bigger tank above) and also give you a place to grow macro algaes to help with nutrient export and filtration.
5. Hire Jack to clean and maintain your tank. lol
I forgot item #0. Skimmer - (get one rated for bigger than your tank) helps remove biological waste from your tank and keeps your fish happy.
Let us know what you are going for and other things that you are looking for in your ultimate tank.

They have come to assist you through a difficulty, to provide you with guidance and support, to aid you physically, emotionally or spiritually. They may seem like a godsend and they are. They are there for the reason you need them to be. Then, without any wrongdoing on your part or at an inconvenient time, this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end.
