Where in trinidad has clean safe water?

about 10miles off Toco. Or on the North side of Tobago

i running a seaclone on my FOWLR 75gal and it works ok. Its on a timer and runs from 7pm to 9am cause it scares the fish during the day. Too much damn fine bubbles. Its running nearly 2 yrs with no probs. small bioload though. On my big tank, I running a 250 gal skimmer....... no fine bubbles whatsoever because of the bio-pin wheel. I not even running extra baffles in my sump. its 25" tall with a 11"X12" footprint. it pulls real gunk out of my tank and has been running nonstop 11+mths now. Guess that what keeps my water clean. I feed my fish about 10-15 times a day..............real heavy too. garlic Pellets, freeze dried mysis, krill & plankton, frozen mysis, nori. A bottle of freeze dried Plankton (1oz - 28 grams) lasts me about under 2 wks. also feed them krill and mysis which is high protein. So you have to be skimming allot.
Also the more LR you have, the better filtration you get cause it helps absorb stuff
you want your nitrates to go to zero?......................................run bio-pellets or do vodka dosing or even both like me. allot of people recently started dosing vinegar with great results.

if i get a biopellet reactor will the nitrates drop to zero?

how often will I have to do partial water changes?

can i put a biopellet reactor on a freshwater tank to control nitrates as well?

i know nothing about the vodka dosing? wah brand, amount, how often?

my whole thing is i trying to make my tank easy to maintain....less work and effort for me....i already find i does have to top off my water too often (every 2 days) so i want less work. Hence the reason I trying to avoid the water changes so often.

water change and top-off is two different things. Get a auto-top off unit that does it for you. But you still have to do water changes. FOWLR you can get away with water changes, Full Reef, you have to be on your game. Especially if you have some good corals. If you going SPS, you have to have pristine water and you must be dosing Cal/Alk often or get a calcium reactor
