Need some advice.

Running a red sea reefer 350 tank filled with frags and some colonies of mainly sps.
Currently dosing the following FM products:
FM Organics 1ml/day
FM MinS (the Booster mix explained in your mins pdf): 0.75ml/2x per week
FM Coral Balance: 1 spoon/week
FM Coral sprint: 1 spoon/2x per week

My parameters are:
Kh: 7,5
Ca: 450
Mg: 1400
PO4: 0-0.01
NO3: 1-2

Parameters are very stable.

For a while I kept loosing sps corals every week. Loosing tissue from the base and up, or from inside and out on the branches. After a while I decided to raise my NO3 and raised it to 4ppm and kept dosing to keep it stable at 4. This seems to have helped as I have stopped loosing corals since a week after raising No3.
I’m thinking of lowering it again but insted increase the dosing of FM products. Which products should I begin raising, and how much?
Or do you recommend me to keep dosing NO3 insted?

Do you recommend me to dose any other products - like Amin, vitality, rebiotic or similar aswell, am I missing something on my current schedule?
