So far so good. I’m only dosing enough to raise ammonia to 0.05ppm once per day. Figured I’d start slow (been ~8 days). I may raise it to 0.1ppm at some point, right now just tracking my nitrate levels to see how the tank responds.

Thanks for the update. :)

Just add something to remove phosphate if feeding heavily?
Yes: Read the suggested thread. To remove organo-phosphates, you'll need a good protein skimmer, algae filter, and KMnO4. This method works very successfully .
 

Looking back to your reefing roots: Did you start with Instant Ocean salt?
