I'm on a two week scheduled starts Sun.....Jay what is your dosing schedule like now? I'd love to hear what you are doing with ferts.
One thing I never skip are the water changes. It's Sat. morning after breakfast and coffee. I have found it helpful to streamline the process. I use a pump which really speeds up draining, and keeps the whole process to under an hour. I've got it down to a science now. Makes it less painful and something I can deal with.
I'm also trying to clean my filters more often. I've found since going more heavily planted debris accumulates faster in the filters. I used to be about every three months or so, and now I am down to every six weeks. I have three filters, and do one every two weeks now. I just do it when changing the water, and the pumped tank water is perfect for rinsing the media.
Of course, for you it seems no matter what you do, the tank is still spectacular!
