I believe that after your tank matures, about a year or so, and your water parameters stay stable, and after you finally know how much to feed to keep nitrate from getting high, you could start limiting your water changes...Members like Biff, Yote, Dustin, etc. have had their tanks established for years now, which is why they don't have to do many, if any, water changes...their systems are self efficient. If your tank is less than 1 or 2 years old, continue to do regular water changes. How much or how often is up to you, only you know your system...All we could do is give advise or opinions, not a regimen.
