How often do you test parameters?
I just thought it would be cool to see how many actually test their water parameters.
Once per week: Every other week: Once a month: Never:

Re: How often do you test perimeters?
it actually varies - when all is going well then 1/mnth, but if something has gone wrong or is just concerning, then I will increase to daily or weekly until it is resolved depending on the issue..

Re: How often do you test perimeters?
I used to test every day.But I have finally got myself broken from that habit.
Down to testing only once,sometimes twice a week.
