So my nitrates and phosphate bottomed out, and i am seeing the beginning stages of dinos. I gave all the rocks a good scrub and sand a good stir to keep it from getting a foothold, and have some neonitro and neophos arriving today so that i can elevate nutrients while i work on building up the bioload (currently only 2 clowns in a 20 long with 20g sump)

My question is, should i wait until the dinos completely disappear before adding more coral? or am i ok as long as i dose the nutrients to acceptable levels?
