I would like to know what everyone's routine is for maintaining there tanks. And how much time you spend a week working on your tank.

My routine is:
-weekly 15-20% water changes
-glass cleaned daily with magfloat as well as a good scrubbing weekly with the water changes.
-testing once a week
-reef code A and B every other day
-brightwell elements on the off days
-aquavitro vibrance 2 times a week
-feeding 2 times a day
-clean skimmer once a week
-change filter sock every 3-4 days
--fill ATO container weekly
-change media in reactors every 3 weeks to a month

I would guess I spend about 5-6 hours a week doing this. Probably a bit longer. The reason I ask is because I want to see what I can change or add to better my tank.

I would have a list of what I do, but I am in the middle of a tank transition, so I have no idea what the new tank will be like. :/
