Opinions on my corals and ?

When you made your tank did you only use brand new dry rock as the rock looks clear white under your corals? Did you use any of your live rock from your last tank or any liverock? Also why did you use GFO and do you use any type of carbon dosing like no pox vinegar or vodka? What is your nitrate and phosphate levels? What kind of test kits do you use and how often do you test? How do you dose (ie by hand, dosing pump, kalk, reactor) and how often do you dose your KH and CA Thanks, Zag
 
I think the only thing you need to look for at this point is RTN'ing. Keep on top of your parms in the aquarium to keep things stable.
 
If you have any buddies with established aquarium. My advice would be to give one frag to a friend to increase your odds of saving that beautiful coral. Or maybe yet, even LFS.
 
I used live rock from old tank, about 10 pounds & 60 pounds dry rock. I used gfo as a precaution and there is no carbon dosing. I let tank run 1 month and did add bacteria.
Nitrate 5
Hand dose currently daily
Calcium at 420
Alk at 8.5
Mag at 1350
