i never test water, BUT, its because A. i research, B. i dont overstock, C. its a heavily planted tank, and D. i think you should test your water when you can and when you feel the need to. I never feel the need to. I am similar to dave spencer, i take the time to learn about how my tank works, when my tank needs attention, and how to fix something that is wrong in my tank. I tested ammonia nitrite and nitrate in the beginning, my cycle took 18 hours to finish, ever since then i have never tested. Plus hobby test kits arent as acurate as you think, you want an accurate test, call the local water managment office.
