Overall - pretty dang good.
Try to keep salt at 1.025 range as it will fluctuate with evaporation.
Nitrate is a little high for coral but safe for fish only

Use this.. https://reef.diesyst.com/chemcalc/chemcalc.html

Just fill in the fields and enter what your parameters are. Then enter what you want to have the levels at. Select fusion 1 or 2 in the drop down menu and it'll give you a good idea on how much is needed.

You don't need to dose both parts. If alk is low just dose part 2. If cal is low add part 1. You don't need to do equal parts as some say you need to. Just dose what your looking for.
 

Set it and forget it: Do you change your aquascape as your corals grow?
