@jack its neccessory because of you can remove nitrate,phosphate by using some product available in market and also add
aditives to complete the calcium,alkalinity,iodine and trace but cant't remove the toxins released by corals and fishes in the water.
Toxins are harmfull for both fish and corals.
You can increased the time of water change ie.once in a month instead of twice in a month but once you got experience that how to control
toxins in the water column for example by avoiding to put hands in your tank and not to disturb inverts again and again also fix them properly
avoiding excess bioloads etc.
