How often do you test perimeters?

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:

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..

 

[hibye]

once per wk it keeps the fish happy but not the miney if you do it weekly like me

 

[hibye]

you beat me joe it seems i never win at the fastes post thing:cry:

 

[Piggy]

Once a week.

 

[reeffreak]

Only once a week.

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.

 

[MikMcgyver]

Right now, since I am new to the hobby I prolly test everyother day, but need to get out of that habit. Kinda expensive...

 

[RigoSharon]

yep..i do them weekly

 

[HAWKS12thMAN]

I try to every week but lately its been once every two weks just cuz im lazy

 

[Bifferwine]

I kinda only test if I suspect there's a problem going on...

 

[simpleman]

1 or 2 times per week

 

[Bifferwine]

Geez you all make me feel like such a slacker! Even since I set up my new tank, I've only tested the params once. Is it cycling? WHO KNOWS!!!! :mrgreen:

 

[zippyjr123]

once a week.

 

[fishbait]

once a week, to once every two weeks.

 

[LionFish]

once every two to three weeks !
Im lazy and there is no problems so why Test the same thing over and over ,

 

[shihtzu217]

I test every week and actually thought that may not be often enough, being new to this . Glad to know that most are on the same page with me.:D

 

[bobby]

I do mine about once a month or so. If it aint broke dont fix it.LOL

 

[ReefKeeper]

i test once a week to be sure nothing is wrong, but lately it has been more like every other week because i am working so much.
