Once the tank has cycled and im no longer testing daily for things like amonia and such, how often should i measure for sg? Does it only fluctuate when you are adding water during water changes? Or does it slowly fall on its own?

The sg should remain steady......you should be topping off with ro fresh water.......water changes you replace the water you remove with water of the same sg/ph/temp
