Am I doing this right?

[Zeal]

Hi everyone new to the hobby been in it almost 2 months now. SUper excited and im obsessedddddd. Recently got a bunch of coral over the span of 2 weeks and everything is doing AWESOME. But I have a couple questions...

Salt hovers around... 1.025-1.026

Water temperature hovers around... 78/79 usually 79.2 to be exact.

Lights... Radeon XR15W Pro Gen 4 running the Coral Lab template SPS PHX 14 with greens and reds at 5% from 9AM to 6PM

Corals I have are..
Trumpet Coral
Favia
Acan
Ricordea
Zoas
Blastomussa
Kenya Tree
Discoma mushroom
Alveopora
And some type of encrusting coral

Im currently spot feeding all my corals every Wednesday/Sunday with all pumps off.

Their diet consist of..

A half a tablespoon reef-roids mixed with gut loaded bring shrimp, I squish it just enough for the coral to eat. (Spot fed using 11ML syringe)

5ML of Aquavitro Fuel

Red Sea Reef Energy A/B 2.5ML (Just started it today)

Poseidon Fury (3,000)
OceanMagik Live Phytoplankton (4 species)
Nano Brine Live Baby Artemia (500)

Not sure what else im missing...

Edit: I have a Nuvo 40G, I added refugium into one of my chambers with Cheato, and live rock. Hopefully the Copapods do the dirty in there and replicate!

Edit:: Refugium has been going for 2 weeks. Today I added the Copapods. (Cheato is growing)

Sorry question is am I overdoing the feeding or should I adjust things? Trying to maximize growth and color.. Maybe adjust things?

It sounds like alot for a new tank.

That being said if your nitrates and phosphates are where you want them to be and not elevated then there's no reason to stop. Just keep it consistent.

And definitly test your nutrients regularly for awhile

Testing every other day, levels seem great.
Tank was cycled with live cured rock 45 pounds, 40 pounds of live sand + 2 bottles of turbo start. Not sure if that matters?

But will do. Im staying consistent, all the house mates seem happy as well as the fish.

I would just suggest taking things slow. Dont increase the bioload suddenly. Also research before you get the corals. Placement(light & flow), agression etc has to be considered carefully to minimize casualty,
