we feed mysis 1x a day but it’s in the afternoon we just started feeding reef roids on Sundays and Tuesdays this week I also use aquavitro fuel on Thursdays and Saturdays but that’s it

You may want to consider adding pellets to the mix or another day of reef roid feeding. Dry foods like these are high in phosphate so you get a more balanced input of nutrients. I feed all the fish pellets in the morning and frozen food at night to try and achieve this balance. While I try to avoid chemicals if possible, really easy to over do and shock the system, but you can go right to one of the liquid phosphate products like Moonshiner Phosphorus or Brightwell Neophos.
