That's a lot of nitrate control for your tank size. Esp from the pics showing how much bioload is in there
As your corals grow i won't be surprised if you find your self struggling to keep nutrient up. Esp once you switch to rodi as I suspect your non - rodied water is a big piece of yiur nitrate source. It just doesn't seem right that so little biomass in your tank can make that much nitrate waste unless you are overfeeding a ton.
I feed my 4 year 29g tank a ton and maintain 5ppm NO3 with only skimmer. Just added fuge last week with a small macro bc I wanted to feed even more and already no3 dropped to 2ppm after 1 week.
