| well ill go first. Daily i check PH and temp (both monitors). I usually do this at feeding time where i also take a quick inventory of inhabitants. I also make sure all of the PH's, skimmer, and pumps are running, and empty the skimmer cup if needed. I usually swipe the front glass if it needs it now too.
Weekly i test for Alk SG, and Ca, clean my skimmer collection cup and wipe off the glass of my lighting system.
Monthly- or there abouts i change 10% water, and take a thorough look at all PHs and pumps and mechanical equip.
I dose 2 part additive. It takes three days to go through 2 gallons of make up in my 29g so i mix three days worth of additive with the water and drip it in (about 100ml/hr).
Thats all i can think of now, im sure ive missed something.
