As a newbie who had a tank crash, and selling my tank. I decided i want to get back to the hobby, and buy a bigger tank this time 130 gallons withh 50 gallons sump.

What should i do this time when my tank hits 0 in nutrients again as im doing caribsea dry rock? Do you dose as a beginner? Or not? Or do you leave it alone as the tank new
 
Well at least weekly testing is necessary, and once you hit that point either increase feeding, or dose nitrates and phosphates. It all sounds super complicated and difficult, but the premise is simple. Keep nitrates at least around 10, and phosphate .1-.5 and stay up on testing. You can buy supplements to dose to keep it up if feeding and bioload is not enough.
