i have an Oceanic 58 rimless with a 25 gallon sump.
Tank is well cycled. So much so that i don't even do water changes anymore. Just keep adding RO/DI water.
Nitrates always below 5.

about 50# of live rock and 3" layer of Caribsea Aragilive substrate

Fish, Coral, or both?

Mine is a 24 gal nano. I do 5 gal or 20% every 2 weeks. Auto top off replenishes with RODI every morning around 2am.

Nudis are pretty cool... if you want them. Some eat corals though. I doubt they are anything more than a nuisance if you are fish only. Perhaps you can pick up a predator for a while if your LFS can recommend something.

I don't see a reason to do any water changes with mine when Nitrates are that low all of the time.

I have 2 green hair corals and that's it right now.

I had some Zoas growing in my 60G then they just started to die off. After reading about them and how they can poison you I said screw them.
