Have really good pe and growth, but the colors aren’t as vibrant as they could be. PO4 stay around 0.03 and NO3 around 5-10. Should I try some aminos? Not currently feeding coral, but heavy feeding fish. Thanks for your help.

IME, lack of color, but good growth is usually a lighting thing if parameters are stable. In no way do you need to feed acros... single cell organisms mostly will get to aminos before coral will, so it only really feeds them on the back end, which you have enough of N and P. Most coral prefer to get their nitrogen from ammonia, so the heavy feeding will help here. Focus on lights or overall stability.
Hmmmm interesting. Seems like should be good there. Here was my 120 running 5 hyrdra 26s but with only two isn't enough intensity? Not sure on that. The top acro were at 500-600 par while.most were 300-400.

I took that down a couple years ago, but did make a par map. Used the lower of the two numbers.
48x24x24
I will also add that I do have some doing really well with color, it’s mainly the stuff with multiple colors that I have issues with.
This is the exact sentiment that people have before they add T5s to the LED... and then post about how it really helped.
I have 2-52hds 16” above my 50 gallon pushing 550-600 (105 Watts each) par at the top of my rocks for 8.5 peak hours and 1.5 hour ramps.
Your corals look great in the pic btw
