I "Neglected" My Frag Tank for 2 Years: Here’s What Actually Happened | Mark Callahan, Mr. Saltwater Tank
Are you driving yourself crazy trying to chase perfect water parameters, or spending hours every week micro-managing your saltwater aquarium? In this episode, Mark takes a completely opposite approach to reef keeping. Watch as he puts his experimental frag tank through extreme conditions, from inconsistent 90% water changes using dirty display tank water to letting alkalinity drop to a shocking 5.2. Discover what happened to the corals exposed to air, why chasing numbers can often cause more harm than good, and how much "breathing room" you actually have in the saltwater aquarium hobby. Whether you are a beginner overwhelmed by exact numbers or an experienced reefer looking for a fresh perspective, learn how you can spend less time panicking over tank parameters and more time enjoying your system.
