Dosing a 60G Softies Tank

[fservillon]

I am curious if I need to dose anything in my 60G cube. All I have are soft corals, sinularia, gsp, bubble coral, some shrooms, zoas, clove polyps and yellow polyps. Sumpless, fugeless and skimmerless for now. Amm and Trite=0, Trate is <10, Barebottom. ~50lbs of LR, 10% waterchange every 2 weeks. All corals are doing great. Some guy told me that Iodine is a good thing to dose once a week and also supplement calcium. I use IO salt, if that matters. Thanks.
Some pics.

Can anybody ID this big guy? Had it for about a year, has grown quite a bit but I forgot what it is?

And a FTS. Sorry about the Home Depot bin, did not get a chance to put it away before taking pic.

One more.

TIA.

Based on your system and how you take care of it (looks nice BTW), I'd say you get everything you need from your water changes. If it is working well now, dont do anything to it.

agreed - maybe up the waterchanges to 10% per week

Thank looks great but test your water for Cal/Alk they work with each other. I noticed that some of your Leathers do not have polyp extension, i dont know if its just the time you took the pic. Forget Iodine someimes it can be toxic if misused. But do check out the Cal/Alk some people have that myth in mind the Cal/Alk is just for hard corals and thats not true. If you go that route use a two part mixture or drip Kalk/PicklingLime.

Every one's tank has different consumption durring different stages. If you get a spert of Coralin growth, It will consume more.
Do your bi-weekly water changes and use test kits to tell you weather or not your water changes are working for you or not.
I would test on the off week of water changes and the day after the change to see how far a range you #'s are a part and if it's keeping up. If it's not, I like 2 part B-ionic's.
